{"product_id":"2024-pooley-margaret-pooley-tribute-riesling","title":"2024 Pooley Margaret Pooley Tribute Riesling","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Margaret Pooley Tribute is a reserve bottling that only makes an appearance when the season is truly exceptional. Sourced from the original 1985 Riesling plantings, this is Anna Pooley’s most concentrated and explosive expression of the variety. It spent five months on lees in old French oak puncheons, a move that builds glorious texture and serious structure.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 vintage is in absolute peak form, leading with mineral-edged aromas of struck match, lime zest, and crushed stone. While it’s loaded with vibrant citrus and apple blossom, there is a complex, savoury layer beneath - think beeswax, clover, and a distinct oyster shell salinity. It’s the shape of the wine that really impresses; it glides along a sleek, saline rail with electric acidity and a flinty, mouth-watering snap on the finish.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnthusiasts should jump on this release. It possesses a growing power and a tightly wound structure that promises a long, golden-hued evolution in the cellar. It is a benchmark Tasmanian Riesling that sits a cut above, offering both immediate racy energy and immense cellaring potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Another excellent release that will hold its own in any benchmark riesling tasting...

Sleek and marble smooth with a light sapidity to the acidity, a saline rail upon which that lovely fruit glides without any friction, sailing long, elegant and true.
