The 2022 Forest Hill Estate Riesling is a benchmark cool-climate Riesling from Mount Barker in Western Australia’s Great Southern, showcasing purity, precision and classic regional character. The nose shows lime, citrus and orange blossom, lifted by floral notes and a hint of minerality.
On the palate, it is light-bodied with high acidity and a clean, linear structure. Bright citrus and lime-driven fruit are supported by crisp freshness and fine texture, leading to a long, focused and refreshing finish. The style is dry, vibrant and age-worthy, reflecting the hallmark tension and clarity of Great Southern Riesling.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a classic premium Australian Riesling that we position as one of the purest expressions of Great Southern. It’s ideal for customers who enjoy Clare Valley or Eden Valley Riesling but want something slightly more restrained and mineral-driven. Drink now for freshness or cellar for 10+ years to develop complexity. Perfect with seafood, sashimi, spicy Asian dishes or fresh salads.
