Sealing a bottle under a screw cap ensures that the wine in the bottle will age under the best possible conditions and ensures that no air or oxygen can enter the bottle. The fresh citrus flavors remain, and are overlaid with flavors of toast, lemon grass and eventually some honey and marmalade. The color, while it will deepen into the gold spectrum, retains its freshness and green hues and does not go brown, and that the flavors and palate do not "dry out",but stay fresh with any sweet fruit characters that were initially in the wine remaining.

The 2010 vintage growing season began with a cool, wet September and October, that meant that the Riesling vines grew slowly. Beautiful weather throughout November and December caused the vines to ‘take-off ’, grow healthily, and flower without impediment. An even summer followed with cool nights and no heat spikes - perfect for the ripening of flavours in the berries.
