The Mills family have farmed here for over a century, with Nick Mills now the fourth generation to guide the land. His biodynamic approach is all about healthy soils and letting the site speak for itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruit comes from mature Riesling vines whose roots reach deep into the schist rock beneath. That depth brings concentration and a distinct mineral edge. Fermentation is slow and gentle, with extended time on skins and lees to build texture and savoury complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere’s a fine balance of freshness and grip, with phenolic structure stretching the flavours long. Citrus, subtle stone fruit and savoury notes sit over a clean line of acidity. It’s vibrant now but will reward cellaring for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Riesling that captures the character of its place – pure, structured and shaped by vines with real history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e93 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Plenty of minerals and sliced lemons with undertones of slate, petrol and bitter limes.
