Description

The 2019 wine grape vintage in Tasmania was extremely compacted, with a very early finish for us. The vintage produced excellent quality with balanced fruit and acid, although yields were significantly down for certain varieties as a result of the very dry conditions. We are the proud custodians of one of the oldest commercial Riesling blocks in Tasmania, planted in 1974. In special vintages we make a Reserve Riesling solely from grapes produced from these old vines.

Review

Vinous. Long. Powerful and yet so delicate, akin to a penumbra of yellow: grapefruit, quince and lemon. A smoky whiff and salinity, too. The fleck of residual sugar sublimated by the greater whole to the point of palpable dryness. Real thrust and parry between fruit and structure here. Very fine.

Tasting Profile
nose

It is a powerful wine, with a fragrant nose of citrus pith and salinity flowing onto a rich palate of lemon, lime and grapefruit.
