Devil's Corner Riesling 2007
|
|
This bright, pale straw Riesling with green tinges displays vibrant aromas of limejuice and florals with subtle hints of spice and musk. The ripe, mouthfilling fruit flavours of lime and tropical fruit are balanced by a zesty minerality that wakes up the tastebuds and leaves your mouth watering for more.
It would team well with most chicken and fish dishes particularly those with Asian inspired flavours. It would also be perfect with a platter of fresh fruit and soft cheeses.

Devil's Corner 9 Degrees Riesling 2008
|
|
This bright, pale straw Riesling with green tinges is musky and spicy on the nose with aromas of limejuice and passionfruit.
This wine displays fresh, mouthfilling fruit on the front of the palate with initial fruit sweetness and some attractive spicy
flavours. The mid-palate is quite full and the finish is soft and lingering but with sufficient acidity to give overall balance to the wine.
Enjoy with Thai style chicken and fish dishes or a mild curry with a creamy coconut sauce. It would also be perfect with a platter of fresh fruit and soft cheeses.

Kayena Vineyard Riesling 2008
|
|
This Riesling has vibrant aromas of lemon zest with hints of citrus blossom, a little limejuice and a minerally edge.
A bright, pale straw colour with tinges of green, this is a steely style with a rush of lemon/lime acidity dominating a palate that is mouthwateringly dry. There is plenty of fruit up-front and good length and persistence hinting at a wine that will develop and soften with time in the bottle.
Serve with seafood such as prawns or scallops or delicate white fish such as whiting.

Pirie Estate Riesling 2007
|
|
A pale lemon/gold, the typical lime blossom
aromatics are cut with a hint of fennel and
slate. The palate is powerfully dry,
tight and steely with a slight phenolic bite on
the finish, giving away little of its future
development.
Delicious with smoked eel (or chicken) and asparagus

Bright mid-straw with green tinges, the aroma of this Riesling is
fragrant and perfumed with strong elements of limejuice and hints of lemon zest and allspice/clove spiciness. On the palate it delivers an added degree of ripeness and palate richness to balance the excellent level of acidity.
Serve with Tassie mussels in a spicy tomato liquor.
