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."

I would buy this wine again
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.

  mostly dry but with excellent fruit - 4/15/2009
I would buy this wine again
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.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green wine
