..Drank my last bottle now. Previous note of July 2013 = "I have had this 3 times now. A really delicious off dry riesling. Citrus and floral notes on the nose. Grapefruit, pear, lemon in the mouth. Long finish with citrus and honey. Off dry with a bright, crisp acidity that leaves you wanting more. Excellent QPR. My wife usually reacts to sulfites - no problem with this wine." 16 months later and it has passed its prime. Still drinking …

This is the first wine from Tawse that has really disappointed me. It has a false fruitiness followed by an unpleasant metallic green taste. A poor effort

by the glass at resto. Pale and bright. Nose is intriguing mix of diesel, floral and green apple. Citrus, lime attack but nothing in the mid palate. Off dry and very crisp acitiy. Nice.

Pear and melon nose, touch of citrus. Buttery and old world in style. Wonderful finish and great balance. This is up there with Burgundy, Aussie and Cali chards at twice the price. We can do this in Canada. A Vintages Essential so enjoy Ontario!

Apricot/peach, petrol with some zesty orange aromas. Nice aroma replays on palate, but with some slight tartness on the finish. Lip-smacking acidity.

Intense apple, pear, butter and peach aromas with replays on the palate. Extra dry wine that is medium-bodied and very smooth, with a lengthy finish. Nice!!

Very pale straw with aromas of petrol, citrus (GF), minerality, and perhaps a herbaceous element. High acidiy, dry, with a nice long sour apple or citrus finish.

Petrol, green apple, white grapefruit, stonefruit and minerality on the nose. Turning to sweet apple and stonefruit on the palate. Pleasant glass of wine.
