| SINGLE VINEYARD ESTATE RIESLING 2016 Eden Valley, South Australia |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
PEWSEY VALE |
| Bright medium straw colour. Refined, very slightly spicy, very fragrant, ripe apple nose with some mineral notes and a touch of lime. Dry, medium to medium-light bodied, harmonious, nicely structured, slightly spicy, faintly honeyed, intense, tangy, fresh ripe melon-apple flavours with a lingering, crisp, unoaked, mineral-tinged finish. Try with a lobster bisque. Has 12% alcohol and only 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L.7088 on the lower part of the glass bottle. Screwcap closure. A terrific dry Riesling that can easily last for many years. A perfect by-the-glass wine for licensees. The recommended best buy 2011 (***) was released on November 24, 2012 at $19.95. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: The 2016 Riesling opens with notes of chalk dust and wet pebbles over a core of lime juice, yuzu zest and lemon grass. Light-bodied and bone dry with a racy line of acidity cutting through the intense citrus and mineral flavors, it finishes with great freshness and length. Drink 2017-2028.
