One of Australia’s top premium producers. This Riesling is made in minute quantities (less than 4000 produced). Quartz-green in colour. Crammed with vibrant Cox’s Orange apple and lemon pith notes on the nose, as well as lifted jasmine and crystallised ginger aromatics. The palate’s bright acidity and river stone flavours are balanced with a gentle fruit sweetness and talc-like texture.

Common questions

What does Spätlese mean?

Late harvest. It describes grapes picked riper than usual. A Spätlese is often medium sweet unless it is labelled trocken.

Why does old Riesling smell of petrol?

With age, a natural compound in Riesling can develop an aroma often described as petrol or kerosene. It is a recognised feature of mature Riesling, not a fault.
