95/100 Halliday Wine Companion, Jane Faulkner, 01 August 2020
"...gorgeous now with its heady aromas of lemon/lime marmalade on toast but mostly poached pears drizzled with a saffron honey glaze. While there's acidity cutting a clean line through the richness and sweetness across the palate..."
General Info:
The semi-arid climate that prevails in the Riverina softens towards the end of autumn with cool nights, and mornings made damp by fog and dew. These are perfect conditions for the development of botrytis fungus on the grapes, and the production of sweet white botrytis wines. The climate is one of the strengths of the Riverina region, helping to make it an ideal wine grape region in Australia, and the main factor in making it one of the best producers of botrytis wines in the world.
