Castle Rock Estate Porongurup Riesling 2020

This must be one of the very best rieslings Rob Diletti has made. Stunning. It has a deep intensity of spicy citrusy fruit delivered which such poise and ease. The minerally wet pebble characters of the palate capture the best qualities of this variety. Powerful and with tremendous ageing potential – a cracker.
