"Expressive lime juice aromas; powerful, rich, strong structure; weighty and long. Rating 93 Drink 2012 Date Tasted Jan 04." James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion.

"Refreshing, long and mineral riesling whose floral aroma of lemon rind, lime juice, wet slate and bathpowder reveal a suggestion of apricot-like influence suggestive of botrytis. Spicy citrus fruit plays along the length of the chalky, dry palate that finishes with an almost austere acidity. 17.7, drink 2008-2011." 92 pts, Jeremy Oliver On Australian Wine.

By Stephen Tanzer
Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Jul/Aug 04
"Very pale color. Perfumed, pure aromas of lime peel, ripe pear, white peach, apricot, honeysuckle and powdered stone. A tightly wound, pungent fruit bomb, with penetrating flavors of lime oil and white grapefruit intensified by high acidity. Offers good texture and a dusty impression of density but remains very light on its feet. 91 points."
