If pear dominates the nose, a medley of green apple, lemon, and almond round out the palate. A quenching wine, super fresh, that’s fruit focused with citrus borders. Charges along for a long finish.

Pale colour. Bright and vibrant pear, apple skin and citrus pith with elegance and focus. Beautifully crisp with well concentrated citrus flavours, fine al dente/ chalky texture with impressive volume and carry through to a lengthy finish. 94 Points.
Ray Jordan - The Vintage Journal - November 2022
The purity and precision of this Adelaide Hills riesling combined to producing a tense and tight yet expressive riesling. Has that slightly bath salts and lemon zest character on the nose while the minerally stay palate delivers with more lime characters. Gosh you could drink a bit of this over the summer. It’s a riesling that quite frankly I think perfect as a youngster yet it will handle some time in the cellar. 93 Points.

Very light colour leads into a restrained but strongly varietal bouquet of fresh and dried flower aromas. It's all about the fruit—not yeasty or estery. The palate is bright and alive, high-energy and crisp with a slight impression of sweetness at its heart before a properly dry and cleansing finish that lingers a long time. Superb flavour and intensity: a graceful wine that promises to reward extended cellaring. 96 Points.

The 2022 Riesling hails from Lenswood and Mt Torrens. A supremely aromatic example of a fine but low yielding vintage. Crunchy pink lady apples, grapefruit and lemon zest meets compressed pears and jasmine tea. The palate is concentrated and weighty delivering buckets of flavour. This is the kind of Riesling everyone would enjoy, it's perfectly balanced for an array of palates and would go down a treat with vege crudites and dip and a good old chin wag. 93 Points.

Very distinctive nose of wild berries and flowers, together with lime-zest and fresh-pineapple notes. Very light and bright on the super-clean palate, but this is married to excellent depth of lime fruit. Long wet-stone finish that’s very dry and focused, without being a jot too tart. 93 Points.
