About The Wine

We wish someone would give us some delicious Riesling as a care package...

Like a number of other NSW producers Mount Majura lost their 2020 vintage to bushfire smoke taint, so ventured to Tasmania to indulge their lust for great Australian Riesling.

This beautifully luscious Riesling was sourced from the Chartley Estate and Waterton Hall vineyards in the Tamar, and was made in a similar way to their normal Canberra wines - whole bunch pressed and cool fermented, and left with a small amount of residual sugar.

It's got a bright nose of citrus, lime juice and some appley notes, and a deep palate with a lick of gentle sweetness. Gorgeous to drink.

About Mount Majura

Mount Majura is one of the most exciting producers in Canberra.

They are quickly gaining fame for producing top class Rieslings and alternative varieties with sensational value across the range.

Winemaker Frank van der Loo's obsessive focus on the terroir and his attempts to find the perfect variety for each patch of dirt under Mount Majura's ownership are resulting in unique and spectacular wines for the region.

Additional Info

From The Producer

Very unusually, this wine is not from our own vineyard, hence the slightly different label. Grapes not affected by smoke taint were sourced from two vineyards in the Tamar Valley of Tasmania – one of the other great Riesling regions. This is fascinatingly different to our own, but delicious in its orchard fruits and delicate citrus zest.

FaQs

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!

Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.

Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.

Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.

I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.

Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.

Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
