Description

If you know Canberra District Riesling, you know Nick O’Leary is one of the best in the game. His 2025 Riesling proves it again - clean, pure, and bursting with energy, this is everything you want in cool-climate Australian Riesling.

Sourced from nine vineyard parcels across the region, the fruit was hand-harvested, whole-bunch pressed, and cool-fermented in stainless steel, before spending time on light lees to build texture. It's a pristine, finely balanced Riesling with immediate appeal but the structure to age beautifully.

Aromatically, it’s all white flowers, apple blossom, and citrus zest, leading into a palate that’s generous and tightly wound at once - crunchy green apple, freshly squeezed lime, and a laser-sharp line of acidity that drives everything home. It’s refreshing, racy, and impossible to put down.

If you’re a fan of the variety, this belongs in your cellar - or just grab a case and drink it while it’s young and fresh and zippy.

    For the Riesling lover!

    Found this wine on a trip to Canberra and had to have a case!

    Easy drinking, smooth, fruity and absolutely beautiful served cold. It definitely doesn't last long in the fridge.

TASTE
Lemon/lime citrus zest and oils, white florals, crisp granny smith apples. Zippy acid balanced with fruit flavours. The nose can be a bit restrained, but the palate opens nicely and focuses the fruit to the back palate with the acid

WINE MAKING
A Canberra regional blend, consisting of 8 different vineyard parcels. Grapes were hand harvested between 10.7 and 12 Baume, then whole bunch pressed. The juice was cool fermented in stainless steel tanks and the wine held on light lees then filtered and bottled last week of June.
