Tasting note
Cave Spring's fine Rieslings have won much international acclaim. This one, from vines that are 20+ years old, features peach, grapefruit, floral and stony mineral flavours. Shines with turkey burgers, cassoulet or baked ham.
The finish is long and intensewith a juicy saline quality and stony edge, very concentrated and muli dimentional.
On the nose, a complex of aromas including anise, cut grass, white flowers and lime citrus mingle seamlessly. Dry and full bodied, the palate is very intense and well extracted, with great tension between acidity and richness on the attack and in the middle. Crisp yellow plum, Granny Smith apple and green melon flavors are present throughout, and carry on to the finish alongside mouthwatering acidity and crushed-stone minerality.
