Pegasus Bay Aria Late Picked Riesling 2014 750ml $30 ★★★★★
Wow. If you’ve ever seen a bunch of botrytis-infected grapes, you’ll know that they’re one of the ugliest sights in all of winemaking. However the golden, liquid loveliness living inside that grey, mouldy grape is capable of absolute magic flavour-wise, and we have a superb example here. Matt Donaldson has crafted a luscious, tangy, honeysuckle and spice-soaked sweetie that also manages to hold refreshing, gum-tingling acidity on the palate. It’s cleansing yet indulgent at the same time. Gorgeous stuff. www.pegasusbay.com
