Hollick The Nectar Riesling 2012
A beautifully ripened, spotlessly pure and intense late-harvest riesling whose floral perfume of pear, apple and peachy fruit reveals nuances of apricot and orange rind and well as distinctive lemon/lime undertones. ItÕs medium to full-flavoured, with a succulent expression of intense, luscious fruit underpinned by a fine chalkiness and extending towards a delightfully vibrant and refreshing finish.

Winery
Hollick
Hollick Estates is a well-established name in Coonawarra whose vines overlie a healthy measure of red dirt and whose winery is equipped with a superb restaurant. Today it's owned by the Hong Kong Leunig Investment Co. Hollick's elegant table wines have stepped up to the mark in recent vintages, particularly with the 2012 Ravenswood and Wilgha Shiraz. Additionally, I particularly enjoy the brightness and elegance of the mid-market Cabernet Sauvignon and Stock Route Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as the sheer drinkability of the late harvest The Nectar Riesling.
