Dry, tangy Riesling that's now showing the benefit of bottle age with lovely toast, aromatic kerosene and honey flavours adding complexity to citrus and floral characters. Quite mellow with a great extra and lingering finsh. Concentrated wine that's delicious now but will probably become even more interesting with greater bottle age.
