Colour:
Bright medium straw with attractive green tints
Bouquet:
Fresh cut peaches with a trace of almond, this attractive fruit dominant nose shows a touch of yeastiness and fine oak.
Palate:
Fine stone fruit flavours with a long and persistent palate that finishes cleanly with a tight, but soft, acidity.
Food Suggestions:
Though wonderful on its own, this wine makes an excellent accompaniment to chicken, seafood and light red meat dishes. Try it with a cappaccio of beef.
Cellaring Potential:
This full flavoured wine will gain dimension in its first two years and the soft acidity will see it mature over the next four to six years.
Background Information:
The Leconfield Coonawarra estate was established in 1974 by one of Australia’s most talented winemakers, Sydney Hamilton. In the subsequent three decades, the vineyard has become famous for the distinctive wines it produces. Over the years the Leconfield Riesling has taken its place amongst the best examples in Australia. Our 35-year-old Riesling vines comprise some of the original planting’s on the estate, mature vines which produce a crop of intensely flavoured fruit with wonderful varietal character every year.
