This is an off-dry riesling, and its making reflects the leading-edge approach Frankland Estate is taking, albeit using older European techniques. In this case it’s fermented in large format 1000L oak. It retains its beautiful fresh acidity which is a feature of the Geisenheim clone used by Frankland for this wine. There is that light sweetness, but it is still vibrant and crisply alive. Excellent.
