Quite amazing to see 13 year-old budget wine hold on so long; blame the screwcap and absence of cork; pristine kero- style riesling; fatter than its equivalent from Clare; expect a blend of warmer Barossa, Clare and Eden Valley, tad sweet but now called richness; green-gold-yellow; looks old tastes honied; brulee and lime juice; full- bodied riesling from its Barossa roots; venerable like the 80 odd year-old man its named after-Wolfgang. 11.5% AUD 10; #riesling #southaustralia #wolfblass #2003

I’ll be honest ... I needed a white wine for cooking and this one was in the fridge - so naturally the Chef needed to try a glass as well! Exceptionally light drinking - would probably still be A+ on a summer afternoon, but as an evening beverage on a cold winter night - it becomes good rather than great. Fresh, Floral and Citrus.
