A delicate and focused release of this riesling. Fresh citrus and lifted florals open the bouquet, with some soft spice and a touch of kaffir lime leaf evident. Fine and direct, fresh citrus acidity holds the palate taut. Flavours of lemon sherbert and green apple lead into a long minerally finish.
Award and Accolades
2015 Vintage: 93 Points - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion "Machine-picked, no magic in the winery: crushed, destemmed and pressed, cool-fermented in tank with 3 months on fine lees, thence to bottle. The vines are mature and the wine has a purity and precision that utterly belies its maritime climate. Small wonder why, with the benefit of the Leeuwin name, it flows out of the winery at such a rate."
