Rockbare Clare Valley Riesling 2023

I reckon an extra year in bottle has been perfect for letting this most attractive Riesling settle into its work. Lime and floral notes on the nose strike immediately. The palate has a degree of tautness, yet there is a gentle texture providing a lovely mouthfeel that is sustained by fine minerally acidity.
