Very pale at bottling but with time this wine will pick up green-gold tints. Aromatic intensity looks set to be one of the hallmarks of the 2009 Marlborough Rieslings. This wine leaps from the glass with masses of citrus, citrus blossom & spice. Medium bodied & beautifully fine with a perfect balance between acid & sugar. The finish is long & pure.
