2007 vintage: 5 stars, Decanter February 2009 issue. “Full-flavoured, medium-dry Riesling with strong apple and lime characters. Sweetness is balanced by fine acidity.” – Bob Campbell, MW.

The tiniest crop levels and meticulous winemaking set Muddy Water Rieslings apart every year giving them great concentration and making them long lasters. The estates’ limestone rich soils have again given the James Hardwick its trademark stamp of citrus, apple and mineral flavours with a crisp zingyness in the mid palate. The finish lasts forever. (16g/l/r.s.).
