Tasted single blind (the identity is known but is hidden when being poured) in a bracket of Rieslings: 3 2013 releases from Taylor's and a 10 year that was included for extra colour - literally.
Aromatically pronounced - almost forward. Lemon, kumquat faint salts, a touch of mandarin. Veering more towards the 'orange' citrus range. Day two sees the tropicals more pronounced. Sherbetty, mineral, quite open - as compared to tight and coiled, lemon sherbet present throughout. Day two sees the wine lose its positive attributes from day 1, replaced with a bitter pinch, retaining a mineral note towards the back palate. Length is good. One for drinking now. 88 Tasted on: Sunday 27th October, a Leaf Day Source: Sample Price: $18.95 Alcohol: 13% Closure: Screwcap Website: http://www.taylorswines.com.au/ Follow me: http://twitter.com/TheVinsomniac
