About The Wine
A Riesling unlike many others in Australia. Part-raised in old oak, and coming from a warmer spot than other Riesling regions, it is both plush and invigorating.
It's got citrus and stonefruit flavours in waves, a concentrated, fullish palate, and has the typical sea shell, salty taste that typifies many Bannockburn wines (the vineyards are an old sea bed).
This is not a thin battery acid Riesling but has flesh, length and great individuality.
