The latest Honest John is a big jump up in quality, with 58 percent riesling at the centre of the blend. The rest is a 5/18/4/12/3 mix of sauvignon blanc, kerner, chardonnay, bacchus and viognier. The nose is an explosive, aromatic mix of fruits that include melon and red grapefruit with a dash of honey. The palate is super-fresh with pear, green apple and melon fruit. There's a perfect tension between the acidity and the sweetness. (AG)
