Purple Palate

With an alcohol reading of only 10% I did prepare myself for an acid bath when tasting this, but the Ruth Miller Riesling's proven track record should have prepared me for what I actually got. Oh, it will cellar beautifully alright. If you can keep your hands off it right now! A very expressive nose of limes, white flowers, apricot kernels and wet river pebbles, and there's no let down on the palate either. Restrained intensity, balanced natural acidity and a lingering finish of lemons and chalk dust. Oh so moreish... -JP
