{"product_id":"2025-bannockburn-riesling","title":"2025 Bannockburn Riesling","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe spend so much time raving about Bannockburn’s Pinots and Chardonnays that we often forget they are sitting on one of the best Riesling vineyards in Victoria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Olive Tree Hill block isn't some recent experiment; it was planted back in 1976 on the estate's unique limestone-rich soils. That is serious old vine heritage, and it shows in the glass. Because this is Geelong and not the Clare Valley, you get a completely different beast here. It is not just about searing acid, it is about weight and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinemaker Matt Holmes leans into that naturally powerful style, keeping the wine on lees to build a fleshy, mouth-filling shape. Sure, you get the classic citrus and blossom notes, but they are wrapped up in layers of musk stick, wet stone and brine. It is savoury, salty and satisfyingly grippy. A Riesling with actual meat on its bones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The balance of fruit and acidity is nigh on perfect.
