Riesling from the Butchers Hill vineyard at Richmond in the Coal River Valley. Whole-bunch pressed and fermented in tank with a further five months on fine lees in old French oak. Pristine fruit and unwavering precision = a beautiful wine. Green apple and lime fruits, wildflowers, crushed stone and grapefruit pith with liminal glimpses of lemon curd. It sports a wicked tubular palate shape of pure citrus fruits and rides on mineral-laden rails of acidity, all focus, velocity and detail. Tremendous length of flavour and sustain here.

About the region

Tasmania

Tasmania is Australia's coolest wine state, and its growers trade warmth for length of season. Grapes ripen slowly and hold their acidity, which is why so much of the country's best sparkling wine is grown here, and why Tasmanian Pinot Noir is lighter-framed and more savoury than mainland examples. Riesling and Chardonnay do well for the same reason. The Tamar Valley, Pipers River and the Coal River Valley are the main pockets.
