Expert Opinion
In the press...
Jamie Goode - S Magazine (Sunday Express) 11/12/2011Wonderfully intense citrus fruits dominate this zippy white, together with peach and pear richness and a hint of sweetness. It would even work with belly pork.
Anthony Rose - The Independent 21/01/2012At four years old, the Thornbury Riesling, is already morphing into a wine with toasty qualities, suggesting sweetness but finishing dry
