Note di degustazione
Bought a part of the case Felton Road offered in aid of victims of the Christchurch earthquake. No shortage of acidity and strong lime notes. Massive fruit concentration here and quite a dry powdery finish. Probably best drunk with food as it's just slightly austere but very fine and has aged well. Still youthful. Bravo! (JR)

The 2009 Dry Riesling gives a moderate intensity of lemon/lime aromas with some crushed stones and a whiff of yeastiness. Very crisp, dry and medium bodied, the palate is seriously citrusy lasting long into the finish. It should be best approached from 2011 and cellar to 2016+. Winemaker Blair Walter continues to work his magic with the recent releases from Central Otago’s most famous Estate. There’s not a wine less than excellent in the bunch, but these days it would be more of a story if there was. Importer: Wilson Daniels Ltd., St. Helena, CA; www.wilsondaniels.com
