2009 Paul Cluver Estate Elgin Riesling 90 Points

Clear, day bright, pale straw with medium concentration, medium viscosity, no evidence of gas or sediment.

Clean, medium intensity with notes of lime, melon, pineapple and hay straw.
Dry to off dry, medium acidity, medium alcohol, new flavours of zesty green lime, medium bodied, fresh and elegant with some minerality note, now until 2018.

Arguably South Africa finest Riesling.

Served at 10 degrees celsius with a grilled yellowfin tuna loin served rare with raw juliennes of shredded roots vegetables, sesame oil & honey dressing.
