Cool conditions meant lovely slow ripening, while plenty of sunshine helps develop flavour without losing the acidity Riesling needs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFermentation starts in stainless steel, with some of the wine finishing in concrete and neutral oak. Time on lees with regular stirring adds mouthfeel, giving this more generosity than a straightforward crisp, dry style.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLemon and juicy citrus lead the way, with a little pithy grip and a rounded palate. The sweetness softens the bright acidity without taking over, keeping the finish fresh and full of flavour.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOpen it with chilli and ginger prawns, or just on a warm afternoon in the backyard. Delicious now but with the bones to age 5-10 years no issue.  Brilliant Riesling and cracking value.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This is the new world of riesling, celebrating balance, concentration and homegrown zingy freshness.
