At the end of a day when I had moved 3 cubic metres of recycled road bitumen using only a rake, square mouth shovel and an old cement hand roller, I was hot, sweaty, smelly, knackered and thirsty.
I tidied myself up, and after having more than my fill of H2O for the day, I reached for the most logical, thirst quenching beverage. Riesling of course.
This one from the Yelland and Papps crew hits the ‘refreshing’ spot precisely where it needed to be hit. On the palate.
Being 2015 you expect it to be fresh but it just seems to have that extra zesty, lemon/lime zing, sort of lift to it followed by some lovely texture on the palate.
A poured myself a glass, sat in my favourite chair, took a drink and everything was good in the world, thanks to this delicious Riesling.
