TN: Clonakilla Riesling 2016

[Waiters Friend]

Pale yellow in colour. Fruit purity is apparent on the nose, with clean and soft lemon lime. There's also some florals and a little talc.

The palate is delicious, with the lemon and lime sliding easily over the tongue. Acid is present, but in a supporting role, and not sharp or zingy as some Australian Rieslings show. There's almost a softness to the wine, which is not a bad thing for current consumption.

Cheers

Hi Allan

Had the 2013 of this the other week and it was gorgeous. I have some of these, but was planning to wait to open the first of my 4.

Cheers

I haven’t had them with too much age but always impressed with what I’ve tasted young.
Very different to SA Riesling with a lot less petro kero , and more like great southern Riesling, which has me head scratching to be honest given the vastly different terroir
