The Story 2013 Riesling

Variety: Riesling
Region/G.I: Western Victoria, Henty
Vintage: 2013
Closure: Screwcap
Colour: Pale yellow
Alcohol: 12.0%
Bouquet: Limey aromas with some wet stone in the mix. Sweet (residual sugar) also present
Flavour: Off dry, elegant wine held together with good acidity and a long finish. The fruit flavours up front tend to ripe kiwi fruit and lime. The long finish is embellished with minerality (which is generally uncommon here) 
Points: 87 (3+7+11.5+8+7.5+50)
Notes: One of the nicest Rieslings in a while. Provided by my current visitor.
