Three old-vine sites experienced near perfect ripening conditions for Riesling in January. The early start to Spring & Summer meant we picked earlier than last year. Late January rainfall heralded a mild February allowing the Riesling to ripen progressively while retaining great natural acidity.
In physics the triple point is the thermodynamic conditions at which the solid, liquid and gaseous phases of a substance coexist in equilibrium. Our quest is for the oft-elusive triple point of riesling: precision, texture & balance. riesling from three old vine sites: Springton, flaxman valley & angaston hills. hand-picked. Whole-bunch pressed. 18 hours skins contact. Exotic aromas of Jasmine, honeysuckle and Mandarin oat alluringly from the glass and lead to a texture laden yet delicate palate evoking new season pink lady apples, mandarin with a nely textured nish of mineral bath salts with a subtle edge of refreshing quinine.
