Torzi Matthews Schist Rock Riesling 2008 is now in stock at The Vine Press. I’m a big fan of Torzi’s reds but their Riesling is a cracker. Here’s a review from Gary Walsh from Winefront. He writes:-
“A new Schist on the block and pretty handy wine too. It smells of cut apple, faint citrus, some mineral and bit of honeysuckle. On the palate it lacks real Eden finesse and focus but has good flavour. It tastes of apple, a bit of citrus and again that minerality but it’s pretty much soft and easy going with some attractive textural grip to compensate. In short, it’s good to drink young with a low risk of ‘weaned on dill pickle face’ syndrome cropping up during those vital social engagements… . It’s obviously a warm year wine and I’d say a good drinking dry white first and foremost rather than a racy Riesling, but none the worse for that.”
