Made from hand-picked grapes sourced from two high, cool-climate sites in the Adelaide Hills; the 2021 Shaw + Smith Adelaide Hills Riesling is an intense, textural and delicious Adelaide Hills Riesling. With wonderful fruit purity, this offers plenty of exotic fruits, citrus and orange blossom flavours, finishing with impressive length.
"94 Points Very pale, water-like appearance. The nose is very shy and reserved, very young and unevolved, with sotto voce whispers of lemon pith and lime peel. There is a dab of sweetness that appears early on the palate, which just softens the steeliness a fraction. It remains very delicate, subtle, pared-back and promising to produce more charms if given more time. Intensity and length are very good." - Huon Hooke, The Real Review, 10 November, 2021.
