Pewsey Vale

The Contours (Museum Reserve) Riesling 2017

  • Eden Valley
  • Australia
  • 3.8/5.0

A mature Riesling with mellow charm but lacking drive.
Evolving pale gold with petrol and lime on the nose. The palate is soft, with gentle acidity, lemon peel, and a waxy texture. Some complexity is there, but it feels a bit flat and tired, especially for a Riesling of this pedigree. Past its best drinking window—enjoy soon if you have a bottle.
