Color: A brilliant fresh green straw colour on release.
Nose: Aromas complex, perfumed notes of citrus and fresh nectarines balanced by toasty French oak and a savoury cashew character from barrel fermentation.
Palate:The palate is full-bodied and complex. Stone fruits and honeydew melon flavours lead to a creamier rounded mid-palate of peach, vanilla and roasted nuts, with a lingering crisp finish of grapefruit and spicy French oak.Again we see these strong floral, lime and pear aromatics in a rich, generous Riesling. The fruit sweetness is intense on the mid palate, where we find juicy tropical notes. Ready to enjoy now.
Featured in Matthew Jukes 100 Best Australian Wines 2023/24This keenly-priced Riesling is ever so slightly off-dry, and, like Gundog Wild Semillon, this sleight of hand adds an extra dimension of juiciness and textural allure that is beautifully offset by the icicle-sharp acidity. With lemony, minty liquid silk flowing across the palate and hints of elderflower and fresh herbs keeping up the action, this is a charming and engaging wine you can drink at speed on a hot day or go slo-mo and relax under its spell.
