This is excitingly youthful. Yet, it has a very complex array of spices, white peaches, citrus and stony minerally accents. The palate is very powerful, and the fruit ripeness is right on. There is a strong and tart grapefruit-like thread that holds the long finish. Best from 2022.

Made in an off-dry style, and inevitably compared with its counterparts from the Mosel and Rheingau. Risking repetition, it is one of the few Australian rieslings that combines the intense, nervy minerality of these wines with pure and delightful varietal character, a testament to the region, vineyard and winemaker. A masterclass in poise and balance.
