BIG FINE GIRL
2008 Riesling
93++ points

"While the second Big Fine Girl immediately seems more elegant than last year’s: finer, and more delicately turned, she’s not yet as harmonious in her movement. There’s the usual whiff of banana and lime blossom in the bouquet, but waxy lime leaves add as much to the pretty palate as the usual juice of the fruit. It’s slightly fluffy and frivolous before the rapier of steely acidity becomes apparent, sheathed in the gentle tannic padding of the pith of the lime. In five years all these bits will be one powerfully smooth whoosh of pleasure. In ten she’ll be legendary."

12.5% alcohol
screw cap

MIXED WHITE DOZEN

With 4 bottles each of Big Fine Girl, Stumbling Block and Oakey Dokey – a very tantalising package!
