2023 Alkoomi Grazing Collection Riesling
The Hallet family has been farming in Frankland River since 1971, starting with just one hectare each of Cabernet Sauvignon, Riesling, Shiraz, and Malbec. Their 1200-hectare farm now hosts a sustainable vineyard and winery. This medium-dry Riesling, made from estate-grown fruit, was harvested early morning and fermented in stainless steel to retain its freshness. It offers aromas of citrus blossoms, mandarin zest, and Earl Grey tea, with flavors of lemon sorbet and vanilla tea biscuits—perfect for a spring picnic with cheese.
Alc. 12.5%
Other Reviews....
A lot of good riesling for the bucks. Scents of green apple, orange blossom, Meyer lemon and jasmine. Flavours limey and intense, a little juicy with a powdery, talc-like finish a little squeaky through its lingering drawl of lemony acidity. Very refreshing, with high drinkability. An acid hound's style, well done. Drink 2023 - 2035.
