Tasting Notes

Appearance

This Great Southern Riesling displays a brilliant pale straw colour with vibrant green-gold highlights, demonstrating excellent clarity and youthful freshness. The wine exhibits light to medium viscosity with delicate legs that flow gracefully down the glass, indicating refined texture and precise winemaking. The crystal-clear appearance reflects the pristine fruit quality and careful handling from vineyard to bottle.

Aroma

The bouquet opens with vibrant aromas of fresh lemon and lime zest, complemented by notes of green apple and white peach. Delicate floral hints of jasmine and orange blossom add elegance, whilst subtle mineral undertones of wet slate and crushed stone speak to the Great Southern terroir. A whisper of lemongrass and citrus pith provides additional complexity, creating an inviting and refreshing aromatic profile that evolves beautifully in the glass.

Palate

On the palate, this Riesling delivers delightful lemon-lime fruit flavours with a gentle texture and appealing crispness. The wine showcases excellent dryness, balanced by a subtle touch of natural acidity that provides structure and length without sharpness. Flavours of Granny Smith apple, lime cordial, and white nectarine flow seamlessly across the mid-palate, whilst mineral notes add depth and precision. The finish is clean, refreshing, and persistent, with lingering citrus and stone fruit characters.

Pairs With

Fresh oysters, pan-fried flathead, Thai green curry, goat’s cheese salad, sushi and sashimi, steamed mussels, or lemon tart.
