Riesling is purity and heartbreak in a glass. There is no truer expression of soil, aspect and climate but at the same time this late ripening prima donna is not forgiving of lesser sites or management. The Porongurup Range is one of the sub-regions of the Great Southern region in WA and home to many mature dry grown Riesling vineyards. Typically the Riesling is later ripening and a little finer with higher acidity from the Porongurups; there is a rain shadow on the north facing slopes that allows for the later ripening on these more elevated sites (High and Dry).
The 2021 Sabotage has classic preserved lemon citrus, with some lime curd and wet granite complexity. The barrel fermentation contributes richness and weight to the mid palate but the finish has typical Great Southern Riesling line with a pearskin and chalky acidity.
