2024 Estate Riesling
A vibrant nose of musk, iris and elderflower lingers and pairs fittingly with the mineral and chalky palate, driven by a bright alluring acidity.

Other Notes
Higher than average rainfall during flowering and over the course of the season resulted in lower yields on all sites. Flavour and sugar development were prolonged, resulting in more hang time, greater intensity and drive.

Winemaker Notes
• Fruit was chilled & whole bunch pressed to tank.
• The juice was racked to Italian concrete fermenters to undertake a natural fermentation.
• Temperatures were carefully monitored throughout fermentation and the ferment stopped with some residual sugar to balance the great natural acidity.
• This wine was then lightly fined and filtered before going to bottle.
