RIESLING 2007

Winemaker’s comments
The grapes were whole bunch pressed to minimise extraction of skin phenolics and cool fermented in stainless steel tanks. The ferment was stopped to maintain a small residual sugar level to balance the acidity.

Bottled:  17th August 2007
Alcohol: 13.1%
Acidity: 8.6 g/L
Residual sugar: 8.8 g/L

 
 

NOTES

Tasting Notes
Appearance – Crystal clear, pale lemon.
Bouquet –A fragrant nose of lifted lime and citrus aromas with white peaches, white flower perfumes and a spice background.

Palate – Very concentrated citrus and stone fruit notes with an underlying complexity of spices. The minerality is finely balanced by a hint of sweetness. Highly structured with a long lingering aftertaste.
