Austins Riesling 2023

The fruit, from the Moorabool Valley in the Geelong region, was given a cold fermentation in tank after harvest, before six months on lees. 4,300 bottles made. The colour is a straw yellow with green flecks. The nose offers notes of florals, spices, pears, river stones and bright citrus, more grapefruit than lime with a minerally support system. This is a refined style with underlying power. A wine of medium length and good focus, the palate has a pleasant soapy (in the nicest possible way), lemony character. Showing an alluring texture, this Riesling is definitely worth a look. Drink for four to seven years.
