Riesling

Franklin River W.A. As is typical of good quality young rieslings, lime aromas are evident, freshly squeezed, green apples too and a faint spring blossom note as the wine opens up. But this is just a prelude to the main act. Immediately upon tasting, the palate is illuminated with explosive...

Nagambie Lakes, Victoria. "Riesling is a bit overlooked in the Nagambie Lakes story but at Tahbilk and Mitchelton, this central Victorian region has excellent examples. Tahbilk’s style is more traditional but quite exotic, with aromas of cinnamon and other sweet spices, citrus and white peach.

WINERY RATING

James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2015

 

Clare Valley, South Australia. Typically floral with powerful aromas of lime. Lifted grassy aromas abound with parsley, green fruits, pear and a hint of pineapple. Very delicate flavours dominated by lemons; precise acid. Quite a rich mouthfeel, slightly saline with lychee giving an exotic twist...

Clare Valley, South Australia.  The wine has well lifted Riesling character with citrus aromatics of lime, lemon and grapefruit. The palate is seamless with moderate viscosity and an extreme acid finish. Rieslings from the Clare Valley are most enjoyable when young and zesty, or left to mature beyond five years of age...

Clare Valley, South Australia.  The wine has lifted varietal Riesling character with floral and citrus aromatics of grapefruit, lime and lemon. The palate is seamless with a richness of flavour built from dry ripening conditions leading into vintage. The wine retains freshness due to our trademark brisk natural acid finish...

Eden Valley, South Australia. ‘Plenty of bath powder perfume! Tim likes to keep things pretty clean I’d say, and he’s certainly got all his ducks in a row here. Then into a much less soft and fluffy palate – firm, dry and energetic, lemons and limes, with a particularly lemony acid cut. Like the purity and bony crunch on the very long finish. Nice!’...
