Vinification

The grapes, naturally chilled by cool early morning temperatures, were harvested and then processed without delay. Whilst in the press, the fruit underwent a short period of skin contact to extract additional aroma and flavour compounds locked away in the skins. This helps create a more complex and savoury Riesling with good richness and textural mouthfeel. The enhanced juice was fermented slowly at very low temperatures in stainless steel vessels to maximise freshness and retain subtle fruit aromas and flavours. Bottled early under screwcap to lock in freshness.

Halliday Wine Companion 2019
The floral bouquet of white flowers (lilies/ hibiscus) and blossom (apple/citrus) chart the path for the palate to follow. And don't think you have discovered all the wine has to offer until you have licked your lips after you've swallowed the wine.
Winemaker Notes

Regional minerality adds an alluring saline edge to this fresh and expressive Riesling.
