Wine Notes:  Round and fruity, a lively mouthful of pear and lemon aromas and flavors, finishing with refreshing balance. Drink now through 2005. 2,000 cases imported. (Source: Wine Spectator, May 15, 2003). Arguably the best value Riesling in the country. Extensive vertical tastings of the wines show that the better vintages can live for 20 years or more, becoming great classics in the course of so doing. Tasting note: Light to medium yellow-green; the clean, firm bouquet with predominantly mineral and herb aromas gives little indication of the quite intense and compact palate which follows, packed with flavour, even a little on the big side. Best: 2002 to 2005. Score - 89. (James Halliday, www.winepros.com.au, Oct. 29, 2002) Food match: chicken off the barbecue, or chicken salad on flax bread with a salad of fresh garden vegetable salad. (Source: Vintages, July 2003).
