2009 Mount Horrocks Cordon Cut Riesling

Bright pale yellow gold.

Pretty, fragrant floral perfumes with a citrus line and underlying vanilla and quince. Puzzlingly delicate yet intense, this is a fruit bomb of flavour in all the good ways. Punchy ripe lime with essence of orange marmalade, and lively acidity bracing the mineral, nectarine and juicy palate.

Incredibly sweet, yet fresh and lively with a delicious zing to the tail.

A stand-alone dessert in itself or perfect partner to fruit-based desserts, especially citrus flavours.

2008 Mount Horrocks Cordon Cut Riesling

Bright light yellow gold.  Delicate yet intense aromas of orange marmalade, star anise and vanilla bean, with wildflower notes that beguile the senses. Classic cordon cut flavours ring true in this vintage, where clever winemaking technique concentrates the natural citrus flavours of the grape, intensifying the sweetness yet retaining the intrinsic acidity of the Riesling grape. It’s incredibly sweet, lively and appealing, full of flavour yet not overpowering and has a crisp clean sweet citrus finish.

So delicious it can be enjoyed as a dessert on its own. Or better still, partner with lemon/lime and other fruit-based desserts.
