TASTING_NOTES_HEADING_BLACK

Sandalwood, preserved citrus, black tea leaves and jasmine seamlessly merge into the more expected Frankland River riesling characters of lemon zest, green apple skins and chalk. In the mouth, the acidity is like a coiled spring, cushioned by voluminous fruit padding on all sides. This is svelte and streamlined, but it has presence and viscosity, too. There is subtle structural integrity and a spool of lingering flavour through the finish ... what a superb wine. This is generous, but it's tense and taut too... disguised austerity. Slatey. Erin Larkin for James Halliday

Producer

Frankland Estate

A significant Frankland River operation, situated on a large sheep property owned by Barrie Smith and Judi Cullam. The vineyard has been established progressively since 1988; the recent introduction of an array of single-vineyard Rieslings has been a highlight. The venture into the single-vineyard wines is driven by Judi’s conviction that terroir is of utmost importance, and the soils are indeed different. The climate is not, and the difference between the wines is not as clear-cut as theory might suggest. The Isolation Ridge Vineyard is now organically grown. Frankland Estate has held several important International Riesling tastings and seminars over recent years... James Halliday's Wine Companion
