The 2022 Pressing Matters R139 Riesling Half Bottle 375ml is a focused and vibrant Tasmanian Riesling that highlights the purity and precision of cool-climate fruit in a convenient smaller format. The nose is lifted and aromatic, showing notes of lime zest, green apple and citrus blossom alongside delicate floral characters and fine mineral detail.

On the palate, it is light-bodied and tightly structured, with bright natural acidity driving flavours of lemon, kaffir lime and crisp orchard fruit through a long, dry finish. The cool Tasmanian growing conditions give the wine freshness and clarity, while the smaller bottle format makes it ideal for earlier enjoyment while still retaining short to medium-term cellaring potential.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Riesling for customers who enjoy fresh, mineral-driven white wines with precision and balance. The half-bottle format is perfect for smaller occasions or midweek dining. Best enjoyed young for its bright citrus character, though it will continue to develop further complexity over the next 5–7 years. Ideal with fresh oysters, grilled prawns, sashimi or spicy Asian-style dishes.

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.
