Tasting Notes for Petaluma Hanlin Hill Riesling 2006 75cl:
Delicately floral, with lemon-lime characters. Flavours of ripe apples and orange blossom are backed up by a lovely acid backbone and long flavour.
Press Coverage:
"...a fruit blockbuster…It is dry, young and zesty, with a sharp, intense lime finish."
Charles Walker, NottinghamEveningPost - 09/11/2007
Producer Information:
Petaluma is one of Australia's most important producers, famous for seeking out the finest terroirs in South Australia rather than taking a one-site-fits-all approach to its grapes. Riesling (one of Australia-s very best) comes from the Hanlin Hill vineyard in the Clare Valley, Chardonnay from the cool climate Piccadilly Valley in the Adelaide Hills and Cabernet from Coonawarra. Andrew 'Ox' Hardy, a member of the original Hardy wine family and a walking encyclopaedia of South Australian wine, is now the man at the helm, ensuring these vineyards have a very exciting future.
