rr1042's Review: Just had this at lunch - what a great wine- it's somewhat unassuming on the nose, but great fruit. Berry and blackcurrant in abundance with a little cigar box.

rr1042's Review: Great example of a dry south australian australian riesling. This is a subtle wine- dont drink after Sav Blanc or chardonnay. Australian rieslings are dry and crisp with plenty of clean fruit.
