Nose - quite shy, but unmistakably Riesling - not dissimilar to a warmer region like the Rheinhessen. Mineral and herbaceous at the moment, with the fruit very much a supporting act. What great potential!
Palate - huge concentration, especially on day two! Saline, tart, like an incredibly fresh lime dressed with salt - am I drinking tequila? Also so herbaceous and floral, with hints of lavender and even blue fruits.
More reserved than the powerful, fabulous 2019, but possessing a similar level of clarity in both the nose and palate, with tremendous salinity, impressive structure and a long finish. It feels a touch early to be drinking this - even with a decant - so I look forward to breaching this case again in a few years’ time.

Unique and excellent pairing with fish. - at LSL reastaurant — a month ago
Brick rim and super pale transparent salmon color. Some pink and purple floral aromatics on the nose, a little funk but not overpowering or off putting whatsoever.
Great acidity, balanced alcohol, very smooth and light tannin that linger to deliver a peppery finish. Overall complex and delicate on the palate with amarena cherry flavor and some artificial pink candy like hubba bubba or cotton candy saltwater taffy. Really desirable minerality similar to the whites I’ve tried from this region. i don’t think you need to chill this before drinking. Would definitely recommend and I’d buy it again for $20 in that 90-92 range for me. — 6 months ago
Lime and gooseberries, slightly bitter finish. Not too exciting - was paired with a hamachi crudo but may have been better off with a NZ sauce blanc. — 9 months ago
A wine of exceptional purity and focus. Dry with lemongrass, lemon, green apple, pear, wet stone, yellow plum, mango, and light Petrol. The crisp acidity balances a rich texture that gives the wine a sense of weight without being heavy. Just glorious with 20 years aging potential. — a year ago
