” A new journey to be started. A new promise to be fulfilled. A new page to be written. Go forth unto this waiting world with glass in hand, all you wine lovers, the open bottle awaits. Be creative. Be adventurous. Be original. And above all else, be brave. For knowing wine is your greatest ally, your greatest tool. Use it wisely.”

Wynns,Coonawarra Riesling 2004 reveals all it was made for.


Have been tippling away on this lovely Riesling recently and with great satisfaction I might add.It is drinking really well, with a lovely combination of that classic Vaseline complexity and limey freshness.I personally am a big  fan of bottle age on whites,that have enough acidity to bear the years.I would not really thank you for a young version of this Riesling or probably any really young Riesling for that matter,Granted I enjoy the fact that, in youth they are always fresh,tangy quaffers but so are many other wines.

I suppose for me it is the knowledge of  what these wines have the potential to become that proves the irritant to drinking them young.Its like seeing a brilliant sports person who goes off  the rails ,giving us glimpses of but never achieving  their full genius.

Enjoy,
Evelyn
