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. […]

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, […]

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. The palate has extreme length and a lingering aftertaste. All three wines underline the strength of this great vintage. 95 points – James Halliday (The Weekend Australian) […]

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 […]

Castle Rock Porongurup Estate Riesling 2023
$32.00A 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 […]

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. […]

Great volume of flavour to follow, gentle grip well placed and giving a serious feel supporting its density and shape through to a lengthy finish. Great overall tension […]

Stunning herbal and crushed rock intensity at the compact and driving finish. 95 points – James Suckling The most fruit driven of the Loewen GG’s, […]

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 […]

Stargazer Coal River Valley Riesling 2022
$35.00Out of Stock
A tense feinherb style that reminds me of the Saar and is a developing style in Tasmania. Intense, almost shockingly so, yet tip toe balanced by the tiny amount of residual sugar. White flowers, green mango, pink grapefruit, lemon and juicy lime. Compact and tight, yet with a wide plane of flavour. Yellow fruits, citrus […]
