Pale lemon in the glass, this Riesling exudes a lifted bouquet of dried mango, apple and ripe apricot, with a delicate hint of quince paste. The palate is richly textured, carrying dried apricot, honey and fresh apple flavors, all brightened by a core of zesty citrus that cuts through the sweetness. Elegantly balanced, it finishes long and precise, demonstrating the finesse of Brancott Valley fruit. Cellaring potential is excellent, with the wine drinking beautifully now but capable of graceful development over many years.
