Bellarmine Dry Riesling 2008



NOTES

Bellarmine Wines produces a range of individual wines made from grapes grown on its picturesque estate in the cool climate region of Pemberton, Western Australia. The vineyard was planted in 2000 and is owned by German doctor, Dr Willi Schumacher and his wife Gudrun Schumacher. The Schumachers are passionate about great wine and searched the world for a place to plant vines before they chose what has become the Bellarmine property.      

 

TASTING NOTES

This wine displays a sense of austerity with its relatively high acid backbone. Bright pale straw colour with green hue. Delicate floral top note with aroma of lime, tropical fruit and lemon emerging. The palate is light, with citrus flavours being dominant. Relatively high acid levels in relation to fruit.

 

REVIEWS
