Aromas of lemon blossom, lifted floral notes of elderflower and rosewater. Hallmark regional lemon/lime characters-the residual sugar integrates well with the wines natural acidity. The wine has a tension, yet a soft texture ensuring great drinkability.
Fruit sourced from two separate Riesling blocks from the Montara vineyard. Harvested in the cool of night by machine, the grapes were gently pressed to stainless steel for settling and temperature controlled fermentation-with inoculated yeasts. A small portion was wild fermented separately in older French oak. Ferment temperatures not exceeding 14°C. Fermentation was concluded leaving the resultant wine with 4g/litre residual sugar. Wine was aged on lees for 5 months to build texture and complexity before filtration and bottling.
92 Point Rated - Jeni Port Halliday Wine Companion
"Machine harvested at night from 2 established riesling blocks. Free-run juice fermented in tank, the pressings in used French oak. Grampians riesling deserves a much higher profile. Wines like this sing. A picture of restrained elegance at this stage with an engaging, lifted fragrance of apple blossom, jasmine, lime pith and lemon curd. Pure in heart with juicy, filigreed acid drive. Delightful drinking."
90 Point Rated - Aaron Brasher The Real Review
"Aromas of citrus, nettle, wet-slate and green melon. Really tight, restrained and linear on the palate. Minerally, chalky, rapier-like acidity cuts a swathe through the tangy, citrus-driven palate. A sleeper."
