Hollick Coonawarra Riesling 2024

There was a time, granted a while ago now, when Riesling was the most planted variety in the Coonawarra region. While it has been thoroughly surpassed by Cabernet Sauvignon and its siblings, what remains still provides thoroughly enjoyable drinking. Exhibit one, your Honour. Straw/green in colour, the nose offers lovely lemon meringue notes with spices and herbs, a touch of orange rind and gentle florals. There is fine, if rather soft, acidity. A wine of medium length which is attractive drinking now and should remain so for at least the next five to six years.
