What's not to love about a blend of two of Australia's finest riesling regions? This year, 65% Flaxman Valley in the Eden Valley and 35% White Hutt old vines from the Hughes family vineyard in the Clare Valley. A beautifully perfumed and potent-smelling wine with achingly pure characters of freshly squeezed lime, Bickford's cordial, Christmas lily, frangipani, orange blossom, bath talc, crushed stone, grapefruit and green-apple sorbet. Headspinningly pure and sleek along its length, it's a high-tensile ride that is at once nervy yet powerful, everything just purring like a finely-tuned engine. Man, it's a lovely wine. -98pts, Dave Brookes for Halliday Wine Companion
