2012 Pikes Clare Valley "Traditionale" Riesling
Aromas of peach blossom and waxy apple skin. Slate, salt, chalk and sherbert. All the usual Rizza suspects in attendance. This however is my kind of young Riesling. Clean cut and super crisp. Racy, plush and scintillating.
A delicate squirt of lemon juice has the saliva prepped in anticipation for the gentle sweet promise that follows before a sublimely dry finish. What tremendous value for money.
