A tropical delight, this Riesling is fresh and zesty with light citrus and jasmine aromas alongside sweet tropical fruit flavours. FGR stands for Forty Grams Residual which means it’s semi-sweet and delicious. It’s loaded with fruit but has enough acid to balance it beautifully to a crisp dry finish. This tasty wine will buddy up brilliantly with any Asian inspired dish.

James Halliday Australian Wine Companion, July 2015
Beautiful essence of Bickford's lime juice, with a hint of passionfruit; utterly perfect balance of residual sugar and acidity. Frogmore Creek pioneered this style in Tasmania well over 10 years ago, the winemaking skilled (and complex).
