Scents of white flower, black liquorice and anise show predominate, with aromas of lemon drop and fresh cut grass in the background. Off dry and medium-bodied, the palate offers flavours of ripe apricot, and lemon rind up front, followed by a broad, concentrated middle palate with a beautiful mineral texture. A steady, well-integrated seam of acidity carries these flavours with good persistence on the finish, where tones of Honey dew melon emerge.

A lovely Riesling, with aromas of Golden Delicious apples, cinnamon, talc and a touch of petrol on the nose. Lighter-bodied and surprisingly dry, given the 11% alcohol by volume listed on the label. The classic Riesling flavors of lemon, honey and, appropriately enough, German chamomile leave you wanting a second glass.

A dry Riesling, packing pine, petrol and floral aromas, which gain peach fruit accents on the palate. Crisp, yet juicy and dry, with a citrus-tinged finish. Drink now.
