The 2024 Pressing Matters R139 Riesling Half Bottle (375ml) is a luscious and beautifully balanced dessert Riesling from the Coal River Valley in Tasmania. The "R139" refers to approximately 139 grams per litre of residual sugar, placing it at the richest end of the Pressing Matters Riesling range. The fruit is cane-cut and left to shrivel on the vine, naturally concentrating both flavour and sugar before selective hand harvesting. Aromas of baked apple, quince paste and citrus are layered with rosewater, bergamot tea, honeysuckle and delicate honeyed notes.

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.
