Delectable told me I drank this exact wine 4 years straight after it had been bottled.
4 years later and my love was rekindled.
Such a rad and fun Riesling, tickles the senses. — 7 years ago
Named RS10 for the unusual amount of residual sugar for an Australian Riesling. This is a stunning wine that combines the expected Aussie focus on citrus (especially lime) with wekl-balanced acidity and a surprising level of crisp minerality. Ripe and almost opulent, it's a wonderful match for food (I had it with scallop carpaccio with lime zest) — 7 years ago

My favourite Cotes de Bourg wine & after having the yummy 2010 & 14 recently I wondered if a 19 year old top vintage @ £98 would hold well & yes it sure didly 😉 88 points from Parker 🤣 but not worth it’s hefty price tag 🤑

2016. Smokey Hollow. Old Mission Peninsula. What a very pleasant and enjoyable surprise. This was a light tart and refreshing wine. Light golden color and light citrus aroma. A little sweetness and apple flavor that went very well with an eclectic dinner including ribs with Carolina sauce and red pepper, Pa Dutch sweet & sour Mac salad m, bok choi and kimchee. Tough menu but the wine came through with flying colors. Really very good! — 7 years ago

So floral, talcy and even slightly rose watery with orchid fruits playing second fiddle. Pretty. Offers a touch of sweetness at 10grams, but balance is all there, one would barely notice — 9 years ago

2nd go round on this guy. A light garnet in color. Very subtle nose. A lighter style Pinot that was very complimentary to our salmon. More of a delightful experience the second time around. — 6 years ago
