NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Pewsey Vale Riesling is an excellent example of the classic Eden Valley Riesling style.The nose is a fragrant mix of lime and fresh apple blossom, while the palate is crisp and lemony, with racy acidity and a bright, refreshing finish. The wine is elegant and well-balanced, with a good intensity of fruit, making it ideal for pairing with seafood or spicy Asian dishes. Enjoy now but this will develop petrol like complexity over the next 10 years.
