Castle Rock A&W 2024

This is Rob’s annual tribute to his parents, Angelo and Wendy, who founded the estate. The fruit comes from the best performing Riesling blocks on the estate each vintage, indeed, hand-harvested from the pick of the rows. The wine spends four months on lees, post ferment. A pale green/gold hue, the wine has aromas weaving through citrus, again those limes and grapefruit pith, with florals and that minerally chalky support. A wine of good energy, with focus and length, juicy acidity and that impressive length, with the intensity of flavour never wavering. Cracking Riesling. Fifteen to twenty years potential here.
