Rippon Emma’s Block Pinot Noir 2018
$138.00It’s hard to express, but smells tighter, with some more noticeable oak. Plum, Daphne, creme de cassis, raspberry and brown spice. The structure is more evident than in the Mature Vine and is cooler, cosseted and slightly less expressive. Very long, so persistent with those trademark velvety/chalk tannins that become more firm and morph into […]

Rippon Mature Vine Riesling 2019
$55.00Bracing minerals, sliced pears and apples, wet stones and a gently floral edge here. So pure and fresh. The palate has a succulent, powerfully aligned drive of fresh apple and pear flavours with a mouthwateringly fresh stream of acidity. More citrusy at the finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold. 95 Points – JamesSuckling.com […]

$165.00Direct from the cool dark cellars of Rippon, and at 10 years old this is drinking beautifully. It’s interesting to taste the estate’s DNA, with no perceptible style changes over the years. As always, an expression of vintage, and 2012 is considered great according to Nick Mill, owner/winemaker at Rippon. Red fruits, cherry, plum, strawberry, […]

$55.00A Riesling of great drama, concentration and tension, of a style rarely found outside Germany. Exotic yellow fruits, cherry, green apple, savoury spice, apricot, yellow peach and honeysuckle. Medium bodied, deep and pure, a thrilling tense palate, Saar like. Rippling energy, gripped with piquant acidity, squeezing phenolics and dusted by mineral salts. Tamed by residual […]

Rippon Lolo’s Mature Vine Riesling 2019
$75.00I have never tasted a riesling to match the intensity of Saar, until this encounter with Rippon’s 2019 Lola. We were lucky enough to have the better part of a bottle, which we drank over three days. Never for a moment did the wine loose a skerrick of it’s power or titanic fruit. Aromatic, with […]
