Pizzini King Valley Riesling 2014

Curiously off form here. Close, and has intensity, but just a bit forward and sweet/sour.

Indeed it already shows some development on the nose, the flavours stuck between really intense limey acidity and toasty lime fruit. Lovely intensity, but just a fraction jumbled. Probably just an awkward phase.

Details: 11.9%, Screwcap, $18
Tasted: Feb. 2005, Sample
Best drinking: 2017-2022
Score: 16/20, 87/100+
Would I buy it? Not yet.

Almost 25 years ago I started working in a small bottleshop, largely to buy cheap beer. There, I met my first two loves - wine and craft beer, and they took over my life. Two decades later and I spend my days as a journalist, buyer, wine show judge, marketer and drinks industry consultant.
