winemaker's notes:

In its inaugural release, the 2006 Magnus Riesling displays all the hallmarks of fine Clare Valley Riesling; juicy acidity, lemony citrus and fullness of flavor. The palate shows fresh punchy citrus fruit balanced out by delicious, tangy acidity, and finishes long and refreshing.

critical acclaim:

"#44 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2008

Impressive for its harmony and seamless structure, offereing a joyous mouthful of lemon curd, quince and lime."

This is a moderately sweet Riesling with a good finish. Pair it with fruit, cheese, fish or chicken. I have bought this now for three years and will continue to use it as my main white wine.

rating (9/25/2010):

Juicy fruit is an excellent description. Lemon and citrus, but really round mouthfeel, balanced by crisp acidity. Hint of petrol in the nose, but the palate really is like a lemon dessert, but a crisp one. Great with lemon chicken or a pasta dish with a citrus based sauce.
