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. […]

Granite Hills Riesling 2022
$30.00If you could open a wine that typifies what’s best about Australian Riesling, this would be it. Add to this the caveat of best value, and this would be it again. Expressive, intense and powerful, with flavours of lemon, lime, zest, grapefruit and minerals. Such an attack of flavour and presence, acidity in lockstep. Ripeness […]

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.

Clemens Busch Marienburg Fahrlay Grosses Gewächs 2020
$160.0097 Points – “Smelling this is like looking into a deep abyss, and someone unfamiliar with intensely mineral dry riesling might feel a bit of vertigo. However, these grapefruit, white-tea and wild-herb aromas really excite us. On the sleek palate this is super-focused with a terrific tannin structure that beautifully matches the crystalline quality on […]
