90 points Josh Raynolds (International Wine Cellar): "[$22 list] Pale yellow. Vibrant aromas of lemon zest, pink grapefruit and wet stone. Very dry and precise, offering tangy citrus fruit flavors and a deeper note of pear skin on the back half. Gains flesh with air while retaining vibrancy; I'll bet this will age nicely. (Jul/Aug 2010)"
90 points Jeremy Oliver (The Australian Wine Annual): "Spotless, very intense and uncomplicated, with ripe, punchy aromas of lime juice, lemon pith and white flowers. It's long and chalky, with a tangy expression of persistent and mouth-filling citrusy flavour, finishing with length, focus and a note of austerity. (2011)"
89 points Wine Advocate: "[$22 list] The tasting line-up began with the 2009 Art Series Riesling, revealing pronounced aromas of lime leaves, yuzu zest, passion fruit and warm grapefruit. Crisp, light to medium bodied, fully dry and elegant, it gives a long steely finish. Drink it now to 2016. (Oct 2010)" - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
88 points Wine Spectator: "[$22 list] Light and tangy, with a licorice edge to the lime and green melon flavors. Finishes with some pizzazz. Drink now through 2020. 600 cases imported. (6/15/10)"
Producer notes: "A wine of brilliant clarity, which has a very pale straw colour with lime green, tinges. The nose shows lifted aromas of citrus blossom, musk, green apple, lime and quince mixed with a delicious mineral edge, which are indicators of an excellent wine. A wine of exceptional length, the palate displays classic Rieslings flavours of lime and grapefruit and green apple. This is a wine with great intensity and depth of flavour. The palate finishes with clean crisp succulent acidity. The 2009 wine we believe compares very well with our renowned 2002 vintage."
