Delatite Estate Riesling 2016

Intensely aromatic Victorian Riesling from 5 Red Star Delatite

As Halliday says: “With its sweeping views across to the snow-clad Alps, this is uncompromising cool climate viticulture. ...many of the plantings are well over 30 years old...the adoption of organic (and partial biodynamic) viticulture ... providing the red wines with more depth and texture; the white wines are as good as ever”. It's a beautfiul wine, intensely aromatic, with lime blossom, bush flowers and a tart lemon rind note. The palate is elegant and lithe, with a delicate mineral character. There’s a nice textural element as well. It's superb with fresh oysters.
