Castle Rock Porongurup Estate Riesling 2023
$32.00Out of Stock
A flagship wine for the brand which they have been making since 1986. So it’s no surprise they have absolutely NAILED it once again. It’s almost like what freshly bathed baby skin smells like, pure and immaculate. Apple blossoms, white nectarine and lychee. Greengage plums, lime pith and quartz. Slippery and nimble on the palate […]

Built beautiful perfumes as it sat in the glass. Tension is high, the wine is dry but supple and balanced, neither tart nor lacking acid, but harmonious. Long finish, needs […]

Crawford River Riesling 2023
$52.00Very light, bright yellow colour with a haunting fresh fragrance of lemon-peel, lime juice and high-toned estery floral notes. The wine is tremendously intense and rich in the mouth, lifted in the core by a tickle of sweetness which niftily counteracts the quite high acidity. There is a firmness that stops just short of austerity. […]

Hochkirch Towards Laidlaws Riesling 2021
$40.00From the NE facing side of the Riesling planting to Geisenheim clones. This has the steely centre that characterizes many Western Victorian Rieslings – it is fermented and aged only in tank. Gorgeous lemon/citrus blossom and green apple aromas. It’s incisive and vibrant mouth feel and tingling natural acidity give this characterful wine tension and […]

Meadowbank Riesling 2023
$39.00Aromatic and open with Gardenia, lemon, saltbush, dried oregano, grapefruit, pawpaw and green mango. Rich and almost full bodied, indeed I’m not sure we’ve ever had a Tasmanian Riesling with such dimensions and depth as this. For all its size and opulent shape, it’s very focused and structured, the richness of fruit tensioned by minerals, […]

Mesh Eden Valley Riesling 2023
$35.00Mesh is a collaboration between Yalumba’s Robert Hill Smith and Jeffrey Grosset, two of Australia’s greatest riesling producers. Typical of the vintage, the 2021 has that extra level of concentration. White flowers, mandarin oil, lemon zest and juicy ripe limes. Texturally, there is a chalky/salty mineral feel, that really lifts the finish. Precise, elegant, detailed […]

Stargazer Palisander Riesling 2021
$45.00Fermented in a ceramic egg and left on lees for ten months. The nose is a combination of dried chamomile and bath salts, with some yuzu and bergamot citrus elements. A juiciness with fruit tingle acidity dominates the palate, backed by a refreshing crunch and wet chalk, almost quinine-like bitterness tidying up the finish. Winemaker’s […]

Rieslingfreak No 4 Eden Valley Riesling 2023
$25.00Classic Eden Valley dried wildflower aromas, pot-pourri, not as dry as the Polish but close. There is high, rapier-like acidity but it avoids tartness. Very lively but soft and with generous fruit, which gives it remarkable approachability—the most up-front of this maker’s ’23s—although it’s obviously going to age well. (A blend of Eden Valley vineyards. […]

Carl Loewen Riesling ‘1896’ 2021
$175.00This is beautiful to drink now, but those things which really make it stand out in the crowd are only just beginning to reveal themselves. With every swirl of the glass the ripe peach and apricot aromas expand until there’s a great cloud of them. Staggering concentration is packed into a rather sleek frame, but […]

Grosset Polish Hill Riesling 2023
$79.00An outstanding release of this vaunted wine. It’s intense, it’s racy, it’s complex and nuanced in its fruit, spice, mineral and subtle savoury elements, all of it woven into an extremely persistent and poised textural experience. There’s stacks of flavour in all this, yet held within a tensile thrust of raciness and faint chalky pucker. […]

Helm Classic Dry Riesling 2023
$40.00Sourced from four estate vineyards dating back to 1975. The aromas waste no time in establishing their class, and underpin the citrus fruit intertwined with bright acidity.
