Great dry riesling should have an immediate flinty, limey, green apple impact on the nose and a tidal wave of crunchy, zesty acidity and lemony citrus elements. Graeme and Gillian Crosbie also produce award winning sauvignon blanc and pinot noir – but it’s this riesling that makes me wring my hands with glee every time it’s released. Bony and beautiful, it’s like a bottled version of the Bannockburn landscape. Sip with a wedge of cumin seed gouda.
