Viridian Wines Riesling 2016
Viridian Wines Riesling 2016 from Tasmania is a dry, cool-climate Riesling showing lifted floral aromas of citrus blossom, lemon zest and green apple with a subtle mineral edge. The palate is crisp and focused, driven by bright lemon and lime fruit, refreshing natural acidity and a clean, dry structure. With time in bottle, it develops classic aged Riesling characters of toast, honey and gentle petrol complexity while retaining its fresh backbone. The texture is light yet precise, giving excellent balance between purity and evolving depth. The finish is long, zesty and mineral, making it ideal with seafood, oysters or Asian cuisine, and rewarding further short to medium-term cellaring.
