Originally posted by Pete D: "Rolf Binder Wines 2005 Riesling Highness 91 points. From one of Australia's finest winemakers, this blend of 85% Eden Valley and 15% Barossa fruit reveals gorgeous pithy green apple and pear-like notes with hints of citrus oil and crushed rocks. Fragrant and chalky, with a distinctive terroir element. This wine stands out brilliantly for its precision, richness, complexity, and ageworthiness. $14"
Am I the only one who finds this description not the least bit inviting? It makes me think its gonna taste like biting into an apple and then licking a chalkboard!
