Koonowla 2009 Riesling (Clare Valley)

Country: Australia /
Variety: Riesling South Australia
Winery: Koonowla / Clare Valley

Bright, crisp and fresh, as a 2009 Clare Riesling should be, this is a pretty wine, blooming on the nose with floral notes, apples and citrus fruit. The lime and green apple flavors are zesty on the finish, but not that long or intense. Probably best from now–2014, but could develop interesting nuances beyond that.
