The 2016 Pewsey Vale The Contours Riesling is a mature Eden Valley Riesling from old vines grown on the vineyard’s coolest slope. The nose shows lemon and white flowers with toast, lemongrass and clove from extended bottle age.
On the palate, it is concentrated and fresh with lime, toasted brioche and lime marmalade, supported by refreshing natural acidity. Extended bottle ageing brings richness and complexity while retaining impressive citrus freshness.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Riesling drinkers who enjoy mature citrus, toast and complex bottle-aged character. Enjoy it now or continue cellaring for many years. Ideal with duck, grilled seafood, spicy Asian dishes or tofu Pad Thai.
