3 Drops Great Southern Riesling 2020

This is why some of us get so excited about the future of riesling in Australia.

The Great Southern region of Western Australia is turning out some of the most aromatic and beautifully defined rieslings in the country.

3 Drops delivers yet another convincing argument that this is the case, this time from the 2020 vintage.

Pale straw. An array of florals – intense apple blossom, lifted spring flowers – is backed by super fresh lemon-grapefruit and spice aromas.

Immediately, resolutely riesling on the palate with citrus, lime leaf, grapefruit pith dryness and a striking lime cordial refrain throughout. Acidity is filigree fine, bringing with it a sense of tension.

So good.
