Tasting Notes - Allinda Riesling 2005 (Recommended)

A rare tasting of a Yarra Valley riesling, at least for us. Quite pale in the glass, a smidgen of pale gold, but only just. Generous nose considering the wine's youth, lifted soft lime notes, favouring the tropical fruit side. More soft subtle fruity notes in the mouth but is well underpinned with more lime and an appropriate plank of acid. Whilst young, and a touch shy, you would not be disappointed drinking this over the next 12 months. Perhaps not a classic cellaring style but will look good over the next 3 to 5 years.
