For me Riesling is one of the purest expressions of the landscape and environment in which it’s grown. It truly reflects the provenance of soil, climate and season, which makes it such a favourite of mine to create and enjoy.
Having a cool dry spell around vintage is ideal for ripening Riesling. The 2024 vintage delivered this in abundance helping to maintain and preserve its pristine natural acidity.
Time on skins before pressing, and maturation for a few months on light lees post fermentation, has added texture and palate weight to this gem. Lime, grapefruit and jasmine flowers encompass a minerality that typifies this variety from high in the Barossa Ranges.
