At 12 years of age this shows the ability of Australian Riesling to age - vibrant acidity and our flavors. Medium lemon color with pronounced aroma of lime, lemon oil, candied lemon peel, petrol, honeysuckle, wet stone, flint, toast and beeswax. Piercing acidity and a long finish. Bone dry. — 4 years ago

Craggy Range is a family owned winery established in 1997. Pale straw with stone and citrus fruit aromas with hints of honey sweetness. On the palate dry, with lively fruit, gooseberry, lime, melon and pronounced grapefruit flavors with subtle herb tones, vivid acidity, crisp and refreshing. Long smooth finish ending with a mineral tones. Nice value! Ready to drink now! Love the ‘19. — 6 years ago

Lime and minerals on the nose. Tart strawberries and slightly effervescent on the palate. Can't really do better on an 80 degree evening, sitting on the lawn of the Wisconsin State Capitol ❤️ — 7 years ago

This is a very nice light resiling. I really enjoyed its delicate lime and peach flavors. Much lighter in flavor and less sweet than American. — 9 years ago

08 vintage - decanted for 2 hours & it is just a great blend of fruit, wet rock, with a smooth mouthfeel. A slight tobacco & pepper finish. It's velvet & pairs exceptionally well with creamy stinky cheese. — 9 years ago

Citrus particularly melon and peach. Crisp finish with lime overtones. For those who want to move a bit beyond typical dry and crisp whites, try this wine. — 11 years ago

Pop and pour. Sublime for bourgogne blanc. The reduction has blown off, and this is pure lime, citrus blossom, a touch of vanilla and a hint of almond/hazelnut. On the palate: fantastic acidity, weight and density. More citrus and stone and just caresses the palate. So elegant. At peak, imo. — 4 years ago

A délicate bouquet of fresh lime, ripe peaches with hints of slate. Lots of zing, a forward acid with a spritz at the end! Simply decadent! — 5 years ago

Prior notes from March 2020 still apply. Most enjoyable and refreshing - mandarin and lime juice notes on the palate. Diminished acid. I hope European Riesling makers continue to use screw caps. Would be difficult to find an Australian Riesling producer who doesn’t use screw caps these days. — 6 years ago

The 13 is banging! The minerality is insane. Salty lime. This one goes full corn tortillas. — 9 years ago

A somewhat muted nose at this point with notes of citrus and wet stone. Juicy and quite dry on the palate with lots of minerality. Much dryer on the palate than the 2014 vintage. Light, juicy flavors of lemon, lime and a touch of peach lead to big, bright acidity and lots of crunchy wet stone and slate notes. The finish is long and very crisp with lots of bright acidity. Great sushi pairing for the evening. — 10 years ago

Starting to gain a little color and flavor development, but still comes across as younger than its 7 years. Lime and a little waxy/petrol thing, along with barely ripe tropical fruit. Easy to empty a glass. — 10 years ago

Comments on here about being 'classic' and green-pepper led. It certainly isn't classic, is very far removed from being herbaceous. It's an elegant and gentle SB, very pale lemon green. Looking for classic Marlborough notes. Mineral, clean, fresh, citrus, lemon, lime, hint of Passionfruit. White flower, elderflower. Very light in style, elegant, very light green notes (like Salad leaf and green pea) lemony, Limey, gentle and very drinkable. From a blend of sites, mainly clay soils. — 11 years ago

9.2

Juicy-fruited, this is unabashedly lime- and peach-forward, with floral and mineral accents playing a secondary role. Acidity is refreshing but not life-ruining. Mouthfeel is pleasantly rounded, belying its moderate abv (11.5%) and crisp, dry finish. Not complex, but pure pleasure, balanced and composed; you’d have to be some kind of dipshit not to love this wine. — 5 years ago

A little more advanced than previous bottles... Yellow floral notes, some tangy lime, rocks. Great balance. Very pure — 5 years ago

2008. Under cork, although later vintages here in Australia are now screw cap. Showing some development now but still honey blossom, lime and apple. Hints of herbs and flowers. Still startling acid. Beautiful wine — 9 years ago

Right on the money with this Riesling! Straw in color and star bright. Nose was filled with lemon-lime, honeydew, Granny Smith apples, wild honey, citrus blossom, ginger, and new plastic pool toy aromas. The palate was extremely well balanced and the acidity was high and puckering. The tart lemon and lime flavors held through the finish. The finish was surprisingly long, and it was a nice medium-minus body. This Riesling provides a solid compliment to spicy sushi and spicy foods. It holds up strong and has a lot of backbone. All in all, this is your Riesling if you are looking for a refreshing, acidic, dry breath of fresh air. Instant favorite of mine! Washington dry Rieslings are spectacular. Cheers! — 10 years ago
