By waiting for a more generous level of ripeness before picking and running the juice into larger, neutral oak - more akin to a German Riesling - they completely skip the screechy, austere style that can turn people off some local Riesling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine has a lovely, unforced texture from plenty of time spent on its yeast lees. You get quiet, subtle floral aromas upfront, but the real joy is the weight across the palate. It feels broad and gently rounded, showing a distinctly dry, gravelly character that cleans up the finish beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs always with VS\u0026amp;B, this is a masterclass in detail, texture and refreshment. Brilliant winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Crackles with energy, limey and mandariny freshness, a saline thrust, pristine green herb and distinct slate and saline qualities. Some green almond too. Good intensity, savoury feeling, exceptional length.
