Speaking about Cuvee and awards and such here’s something that’s a must try. Legends entered this outstanding wine into the 2009 Cuvee awards against wines that were much younger and pulled off quite the upset as they tied for the first place Riesling award. A little pricey at twenty-nine bucks, but then they’ve done all the aging and storing for you; all that’s left for you to do is buy it and drink it. The nose reflects the palate with a great fruit to petrol ratio – still plenty of acidity here to keep the mouth watering yet it ends with a slight lanolin coating on the tongue. There’s no doubt when you stick your nose in the glass that it’s a beautifully aged Riesling … it’s like that old codger down the street that keeps bringing home the ladies, it’s old, but it’s smooth.
