Natalie's Score: 88/100

Lime purity runs through the heart of this refreshing wine. Terrific vibrancy and concentrated flavour but not heavy. Although it's off-dry, it's hard to detect any sweetness other than tree fruit ripeness. Superb effort!

Riesling food pairings: roasted glazed ham, goats cheese or white pizza with mozzrella, Romano and vegetable toppings.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
