Personalised Shaw + Smith Riesling 12% 750ml

A Riesling that is both intense and textural. The 2021 vintage was a terrific year for Riesling with slightly larger berries that gave the wines great flavour and purity. Perfectly balanced flavours include exotic fruits, citrus and orange blossom. The length is long and profound.

Expert Review:
Huon Hooke- 94 Points, Very pale, water-like appearance. The nose is very shy and reserved, very young and unevolved, with sotto voce whispers of lemon pith and lime peel. There is a dab of sweetness that appears early on the palate, which just softens the steeliness a fraction. It remains very delicate, subtle, pared-back and promising to produce more charms if given more time. Intensity and length are very good.
