Gold, Gold, Gold

The 2008 Lengs & Cooter Riesling won a gold medal at the Clare Valley
Regional Wine Show, in Section A - "Current Vintage Wine" Class 1 " Riesling
2008 Vintage".
Of the 62 Clare Valley Rieslings entered only 4 Golds were awarded.
This is considered quite an accolade since the Clare Valley is the home of Riesling.
Judges comments:
Silver and Gold medals were awarded to finer bottle ageing styles and richer current drinking wines
At $ 18.35 a bottle (mixed or straight case rate), this is the bargain of a century with a great cellaring prospect, and personally I think dinner parties are much more interesting with aged Rieslings than other whites from current release.
