(April 2, 2017) … Couple of old Fielding Rieslings to look at:
Fielding 2007 Riesling Reserve … This is a hot year Riesling with some real intensity on the nose: petrol, beeswax, lanolin; much follows onto the palate but there seems to be a lack of acidity; finish is nice though: honeycomb, beeswax, and a hint of baked apple.
Fielding 2006 Semi-Dry Riesling … This cooler year Riesling is much more expressive – pineapple syrup, apple, talc, and a great acid backbone still carries this wine, plus that touch of sweetness is a balanced masterstroke to its enjoyment.
