Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Dan Trcka rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

The 2011 Fielding Estate Bottled Riesling is a medium bodied, fruity wine with appealing aromas of green apple and washed stone minerality. Thought it is high in residual sugar, due to its crisp acidity it doesn’t taste sweet; the finish is medium. My impression: NICE, 89 pts. Tasted Jan/13.

Brimming with alluring aromas, balance and lip-smacking flavour, this was tough to spit. Aromas of nectarine, apple and pear interweave with mineral notes on the nose then rocket across the palate with a gusher of spice-infused Granny Smith apple, pear and bracing lemon-lime. It’s mid weight and nicely textured finishing in a blaze of mouth-watering, just-off-dry, sweet and tang. Great value. Score: 4½ (out of 5) Source: Vic Harradine, winecurrent.com, Aug. 1, 2012
