| Making Techniques | After a slow yet even ripening period, the fruit was handpicked with great flavour and amazing natural acidity and low pH. The fruit was gently pressed and only the free run was fermented in stainless steel. Left on fine lees for 5 months to build texture and weight. This wines was then lightly fined, filtered and bottled. |

| Robert Parker 91+ Points | 'Scented fresh apple slices, grapefruit and pearswith underlying coriander seed and dill seed hints, the light bodied and dry 2013 The Wolf Riesling is very crisp and yet approachable even at this very youthful stage. It fills the mouth with apple and pear flavours before finishing with lingering, exotic spice notes. Drink it nowto 2020+' |
| Stephen Tanzer 92 Points | 'Green-tinged yellow. Intense, highly perfumed citrus and orchard fruit aromas are complicated by notes of white pepper, minerals and jasmine. Concentrated yet racy and precise, offering nervy grapefruit fruit, orange zest and green apple flavours that flesh out with air. Shows excellent clarity on the long, incisive finish, which leaves dusty mineral and floral notes behind.' |
