The 2025 Forest Hill Estate Riesling is a vibrant cool-climate expression from Mount Barker in Western Australia’s Great Southern, showcasing purity and precision. The nose shows lime, lemon zest and green apple, layered with white flowers and subtle yellow fruit notes, delivering a lifted and aromatic profile.
On the palate, it is light-bodied with bright acidity and a clean, linear structure. Citrus and lime-driven fruit are supported by mineral freshness and a lightly textured mouthfeel, leading to a long, crisp and refreshing finish. The style is energetic and balanced, with excellent drinkability and classic Great Southern clarity.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a classic premium Australian Riesling that we position as a benchmark Great Southern expression. It’s ideal for customers who enjoy Clare Valley or Eden Valley Riesling but want something slightly more lifted and mineral-driven. Drink now for freshness or cellar for 8–12+ years to develop complexity. Perfect with oysters, sashimi, spicy Asian dishes or fresh salads.
