Riesling

Clare Valley, South Australia. The fruit was handpicked and carefully selected to retain the freshness and punchy citrus fruit flavour that Watervale is renowned. With lifted aromatics of lemon zest and lime...

New Zealand. Very pale straw, with green hues. Lifted floral aromatics of rose and frangipani combine with lemon zest and lime marmalde fruit notes. The citrus infused palate posseses a finely tuned tension between sweetness and acidity leaving the palate clean and fresh...

South West Victoria. A particularly fine, mineral expression of our site and the season – this wine is exciting. Delicate citrus, white florals and green melon combine with hints of oyster shell on the nose...

McLaren Vale, South Australia. There is a lushness about the aromatic nose with inviting characters of citrus oil and blossom, green apple, white peach and guava. There is a secondary layer beginning to emerge with wet pebble stones and a sherbet character that is expected to become more prominent as the wine ages...

Mansfield, Victoria. The fruit was picked in late March and early April and after a short period of cold settling the juice was allowed to undergo a wild ferment and then spent eight months on lees with periodic stirring. The resulting wine shows cinnamon and floral aromas... 

Granton, Tasmania.  Aromatic and elegant on the nose with a tight clean acidity, this wine is showing all the class of a true Tasmanian cool-climate riesling. Although exciting and fresh now, this wine could also be cellared to allow the bright acid and hint of phenolics to mature...

Alsace, France. Note: From an assemblage of old vines from the Rosenberg and Altenbourg vineyards. Bright straw-green. Blood orange and lemon aromas. Juicy and ripe on the palate, with flavours of orange, tangerine and yellow apple. Lovely concentration here, very nicely balanced, finishing with bright acidity and lingering lemon and a lick of spice and herb. A lesson in purity!

Alsace, France. Note: Note: the Schlossberg is a brilliantly tightly focused, mineral interpretation of the great Rielsing grape. With a pale gold colour the Schlossberg combines power and finesse. Apple, spice, mineral and wax integrate with the sinewy structure and rich texture. The length of this wine is extraordinary.

Alsace, France. Color: Gold. Nose: Fresh, mineral, floral, citrus fruit. Palate: Wonderfully dry, mineraly characteristics, white fruit, peach...

Alsace, France. Almost a passionfruit crême brule sweetness, well rounded, hessian, soft and dripping, almost like a chardonnay for weight, spicy and phenolic finish, with savoury lathed wood and such. You’ll either love it or not love it, I’m thinking...
