Christa Rolf Late Harvest Riesling Half Bottle 2014 - Barossa Valley, AustraliaAn excellent Riesling, in a half bottle. 89 100 Huon Hooke (2012 vintage)88 100 Ben Edwards (2012 vintage)5 star Winery Halliday Wine CompanionHuon Hooke "Medium to light, bright yellow hue and a fresh, clean, floral riesling aroma suggests a late harvest, non botrytised riesling. It's a straightforward fruit style, with bright frisky fruit and acidity, not complex or profound, but refreshing light, lively style of semi sweet riesling. Nice." (2012

cherry and hints of spice

grapefruit and pear skins on the nose

to accompany oysters and fish

were used in the blend

Ripe fruit and low oak impact on the palate

and can be cellared for up to 20 years

Primitivo's modern-day home is in southern Italy

The elegant palate shows both fresh and dried blackberries

A small percentage are made in a dry Brut style offering bracing green apple and citrus fruit

weighty sauvignon with delicious passionfruit

freshly sliced bell pepper and cut grass

And the texture is sleek and fluid but not glassy-smooth
