winemaker's notes:

Thomas Hyland Riesling is made in an off-dry style and was sourced from the Adelaide region. The wine has spent a small amount of time on yeast lees, which has given the wine greater fruit concentration and a softer mouth-feel whilst maintaining freshness and natural acidity.

alcohol by volume: 12.0%

critical acclaim:

"Bright straw-green; has a highly aromatic, almost pungent, bouquet of citrus and tropical fruit, the emphatic palate following suit. The Adelaide Zone encompasses Adelaide Hills, Eden Valley, Clare Valley and Barossa Valley."

Australian Wine Companion

"Bright, tangy and juicy, offering a mouthwatering whoosh of lime blossom-scented pear and apple flavors, lingering effortlessly on the vivid finish. Drink now through 2014.—"

The Wine...Thomas Penfolds Hyland Riesling 2008...The scene...Enjoying a relaxing afternoon in the yard with the wife and having a glass of wine. A bit warm outside so the wine was nice instead of a beer but didn't like the bitter aftertaste that I experienced as I had another glass. Not a bad tasting wine but don't think I would order another Riesling like this one.
