2012 Oakridge Local Vineyard Series Yarrawood Vineyard Botrytis Riesling

rsz_oakridge_localpct20yvpct20botrytispct20reislingpct202012_frontA worthy successor to the 2011 release. 180g/l residual sugar yet it exhibits a real sense of freshness. Grapes are once again sourced from the Yarrawood vineyard at Yarra Glen.

Lemon sherbet, dried apricots, cinnamon baked apples and a hint of ginger. Sweet yet it sparkles on the palate with a cleansing line of acidity mopping up as it moves through its line. Plenty of length. Exemplary take on the style. 93 Very Good – Excellent
