Harewood Estate’s Great Southern Riesling is a blend of grapes grown in the winery’s recognised riesling growing sub-regions of Western Australia’s Great Southern GI: Mount Barker, Denmark, Porongurup and Frankland River. The wine shows a brilliant, exceptionally pale straw colour with youthful green tinges on release, and exhibits pungent spicy blossom aromas, and hints of stone fruits enhanced by an underlying citrus vibrancy. A seamless palate follows, with initial flavours of passionfruit and lemon barley leading to a richer, spicy mid-palate with hints of pear, and finishing with classic mouth-watering citrus.

The grapes for this Riesling are from a single vineyard in the Frankland River subregion, the most northerly and continental in the Great Southern of Western Australia. Only the finest free-run juice is used for this wine, resulting in a palate of outstanding finesse. A long cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by minimal fining and an early bottling captures the inherent delicacy of the regional characteristics of the variety. A brilliant, exceptionally pale straw colour with youthful green tinges. Pungent spicy blossom aromas with hints of stone fruits, all enhanced by an underlying citrus vibrancy. Initial flavours of passionfruit and lemon barley lead to a spicy mid-palate with hints of citrus peel, finishing with classic and mouth watering aromas of lemons and limes. The fine structure is testament to the care taken during the production. Enjoy on release or cellar 1-2 years to develop the character, 2-5+ years for enjoyable mature Riesling flavours.
