Barossa Valley Riesling 2025

An attractively packaged and obviously very youthful Riesling. Early signs are that 2025 is another very fine vintage for the region, a very early and dry one, and we see that here. The vineyard providing the fruit for this thoroughly enjoyable Riesling was planted back in 1981.

Lemon/straw in colour, this is seriously aromatic, with the aromas flooding forth from the glass – delightfully limey notes. There are also hints of florals and lemon blossoms and a lovely freshly baked lemon pie character. Forward, expressive, clean, fresh and intense, there is a minerally backing. The wine is well balanced and offers good length. A delicious wine for enjoying over the next six to eight years. 93.
