2021 Pressing Matters Riesling R9

One of four styles of rieslings made each year at Pressing Matters. Off-dry in sweetness—at 9 g/L in residual sugar—and made from single vineyard fruit from our property in the Coal River Valley, Tasmania.

Light yellow hue. Wet cement, dried flower and green apple aromas, lemon pith and dried herbs too. The palate is starting to fill out and widen, with generous flavour and amplitude—within the delicate framework of Tasmanian riesling. There is a dab of sweetness in the middle-palate, which soon dries off towards the finish thanks to acidity and phenolics. There’s quite a grip, which would help the wine work well with food.
