Ellero

Ellero 'Pisa Terrace' 2011 Riesling Central Otago 12.4%
N: Fragrant and quite gentle yet full of floral, citrus and white tree fruit suggestions. A Central Otago mineral signature with a drift of white spice. A gentle yet definitive complexity.
4.5 Stars

P: Definitely on the drier end of 'medium dry'. A focused , almost electric acidity; mandarin and grapefruit flavors with a mix of apple. The mineral from the nose - reapperas with a wet stone and chalky quartz flavor. A lovely texture and finish. Not too lengthy, but balanced and well made. Drink now or cellar with confidence for 2 - 5 years.
4.5 Stars
