TN: Richmond Grove 1998 Barossa Riesling (Screwcap)

Post by David Lole »

I'd be surprised if this Excellent Riesling doesn't contain some top notch Eden valley fruit.

Pale lemon/green in colour. Intense oily, toasty nose with a considerable lime/minerale backdrop. Much less-developed palate with volumes of crisp green apple and lime fruit, tremendous mouthfeel and a scintilating, seamless acid cut that augurs well for a prolonged stint in the cellar. Superb length. Drink Now-2014. Amazing QPR. Paid $10 at release and sought another dozen at auction for not much more quite recently. If only the bigots would bend just a little. :wink:
