Mayfield Vineyard Estate'Backyard' Riesling
2023 Riesling
Orange, New South Wales
Vibrant aromas of citrus, musk and a hint of spice. The palate is juicy with driving acidity complemented by balanced, attractive fruit sweetness and a menagerie of citrus and stone fruit flavours. It has a long, linear structure and delicate balance of sweetness and acid.
90 Points, THE REAL REVIEW, Huon Hooke
Very light straw colour; savoury aromas of dried herbs and flowers, somewhat reserved aromatically, the palate is off-dry and light-bodied, the fruit of only moderate intensity... a very attractive young riesling probably for relatively early drinking.
WINELINES, Gilbert Labour
This exuberant Riesling delivers an upfront punch of floral & citrussy high notes. Juicy acid zing and musky minerality underpin a fruit-driven framework in the green apple/pear range. The relatively high residual sugar component delivers a sweet and astringent, tutti-fruity Germanic palate complexity that entices to yet another sip. Currently youthfully fulsome, it might benefit from some bottle sleep to enhance integration of its abundant varietal attribute.
