Wine Review: This was my second favorite offering from the portfolio of SA Prum Rieslings that I recently reviewed. This wine opens with a modest peach like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, elegant, and viscous with very nicely balanced fruit and acidity. The flavor profile is light ripe apricot and lemon. I could drink glasses of this wine, it is that good. The finish is semi dry and lingers for some time. This is a memorable wine. You should share a glass with someone special. Enjoy - Ken
Winemaker Notes: Bright, vibrant gold. Delicate aromas of rose petals and citrus fruit. Full-bodied, with flavors of pear and nectarine mingling with mineral nuances and culminating in a long finish.
