Pale straw with light green hues Floral aromatics of apple and lemon blossom with hints of lavender, overlay freshly cut lime and ginger spice. Juicy lime and lemon curd characters combine with pomegranate and bath salts. The long, crisp citrus palate is balanced by gentle chalky texture and the natural cool climate acidity, creating a wine of length and structure.
Vineyard Notes
Grapes: 100% Riesling sourced from our estate vineyard at Relbia in northern Tasmania.
Production Notes
Winemaking: Our Riesling is hand-picked and transported to the winery as quickly as possible. Pressing commences as soon as the grapes arrive and the juice is transferred to stainless steel tanks, with only the free-run juice retained. Racked from solids after 2 days, it is then fermented at cool temperatures with a neutral yeast to showcase varietal characters. Bottled under screwcap, to enable the wine to be enjoyed at its optimum.
Winemaker Notes
Due to our naturally high acid levels in our Rieslings, they have great cellaring potential. Whilst pleasant drinking now, with further cellaring this wine will develop a richer palate and honeyed toasty flavours. Cellaring – Now to 2025.
Food Pairing Notes
Fresh seafood, especially oysters and scallops.
