2018 Pikes The Merle Riesling

Out Of Stock
Intense lime and green apple aromatics are complexed by emerging oily kerosene-like notes with citrus, light toast, and spice also evident. Concentrated lime and citrus flavours have a steely underbelly with orange rind, subtle toast and traces oily kersosene characters then moving in. Crunchy acidity. Excellent drive with a long finish that builds textural momentum as it sails on.
Drinking beautifully now, but certainly, no rush, will cellar till 2030-2035
