Description
100% riesling grown on Stephen and Prue Henschke’s Lenswood vineyard in the Adelaide Hills. Fermented in tank and bottled post-vintage to preserve the delicate aromatic fruit characters. Bottle aged at Henschke Cellars in Keyneton for museum release.
Pale straw with lime hues. Fragrant layers of citrus blossom florals, lemon and lime zest, sherbet and bath talcs, with a hint of honey indicating development. Focused citrus juice, Bickford’s lime, lime leaf and grapefruit flavours are complemented by wet stone minerality and tightly wound acidity for a long, fine, crisp finish.
