Jacob's Creek Riesling South Australia 2004 ($12). Attractive vibrant green color, flowery citrus lime aroma, clean and fresh with good Riesling varietal definition. Enticing citrus flavors on the palate with great structure and length. The fruit is balanced with soft minerally acid that finishes crisp and dry. Food. This wine can accompany grilled chicken, crab legs or even lighter pork dishes. 12% Alcohol. |
