About this product
Independent wineryHalf the pleasure of riesling for us is the delicate floral perfume reminiscent of gardenias and orange blossom and which the 2023 Freycinet Riesling reveals in spades.
he vibrant yet elegant palate offers a heady mix of citrus, green apple, white nectarine and gentle spice, complemented by a crisp and refreshing minerality. The excellent natural acid retention of a cool vintage, balanced with 2.94 g per L of residual sugar delivers scintillating tension.
This wine has all the hallmarks of a classic Riesling vintage, built for the long haul in the cellar.
The elegance and refreshment qualities of the wine make it a perfect accompaniment to all lighter flavoured fine foods particularly seafood, or it can be simply enjoyed on its own.
Carefully cellared this wine will provide drinking pleasure over a 25 year period, developing attractively complex aged characters reminiscent of honey and toast.

Ultra-fragrant but low-key aromas of a fresh, vibrant young riesling with lime-leaf, lemon juice, fragrant herb and tropical-flower aromas; the palate is rapier-crisp and incisive with bright lemony acidity. There is terrific line and length, precision flavour, and acidity which is brisk but balanced. Great potential: lovely now but it will richly reward some cellar time.
