Double Oaks Riesling 2020

Ah, in the words of Monty Python: “now for something completely different”. This is a Riesling quite different from most you might have tasted. It’s been basket pressed and racked to old oak barrels and then barrel fermented with half wild yeast. That’s the first important piece of its journey. It’s then aged for four months on fine lees. The result is quite a beautiful wine with the texture a key distinguishing feature. Love the palate with its rich fruit intensity with a trace of varietal lemony zing in the background. An exciting tweak on a traditional Aussie variety.
