MAYFIELD VINEYARD 'BACKYARD' RIESLING 2023

MAYFIELD VINEYARD 'BACKYARD' RIESLING 2023 ($34 / Orange NSW)

This exuberant Riesling delivers an upfront punch of floral & citrussy high notes.

Juicy acid zing and musky minerality underpin a fruit-driven framework in the green apple/pear range.

The relatively high residual sugar component delivers a sweet and astringent, tutti-fruity Germanic palate complexity that entices to yet another sip.

Currently youthfully fulsome, it might benefit from some bottle sleep to enhance integration of its abundant varietal attribute.
