2007 Thorn-Clarke Riesling presents sweet fragrant florals, zesty limes/lemons, white currants and mineral notes. It has good acidity and a long finish on the palate.
From the winemaker – “The wine is a very pale straw with a green tinge. The nose has lifted floral, lime and Granny Smith apples with nectarine and musk also evident. The palate is medium bodied with rich delicious apples and a distinctive Eden Valley minerality. This flavour combines magnificently with the zingy freshness provided by the good acid balance to give this wine great line and length.
This wine is best served with a vast array of foods, but the winemaker recommends spicy tandoori chicken.
