Bream Creek are the proud custodians of the oldest commercial Riesling block in Tasmania, planted in 1974. In excellent vintages Bream Creek makes a special Reserve Riesling solely from fruit from these old vines. It is a powerful and bold wine, with a fragrant nose of citrus and mineral characters flowing onto a lengthy palate of lemon and lime juice, as well as a hint of grapefruit. It is simply delicious now, yet can be cellared with absolute confidence.

Light and youthful yellow colour. An alluring mix of lemon curd, musk, roasted almonds - secondary notes kicking in. Loads of energy to the palate, lemon zest and essence. A delicious riesling in a terrific place. Amazing length 27 FEB 2020 Drink 2020–2026

Light yellow colour. Subtle but intense lemon-citrus aroma; very refined, delicate, fragrant and delicious. Not too dry, nor obviously halbtrocken, but cleverly balanced. Delicious flavour and length, oodles of charm. Gorgeous drinking. Drink 2020 to 2030

Comes from Bream Creek's 44yo riesling vines, believed to be the oldest in Tasmania. It is already flaunting its wares with titratable acidity of 8.2g/l and residual sugar of 7.3g/l. It simply ratchets up the power of all in the inputs, and will give pleasure when very young or very old - and any point along the way.
