The 2022 vintage was the coolest and latest vintage we have experienced and the riesling fruit we harvested from Block 5 was simply sensational. The resulting wine is exquisite and takes Australian riesling into new territory in terms of style and quality. To quote Huon Hooke ‘a smashing young riesling’.

"Kaffir lime leaf, dried herbs and lemon leaf aromas, really lovely—intense and fascinating. The palate is soft and seamless with a trace of sweetness early then a clean, dry, balanced finish. There's mid-palate richness which really delights. A smashing young riesling, already beautiful to drink. 95 points." - Huon Hooke, The Real Review

"A pure, intensely flavoured expression of such filigreed structure … so fresh and juicy is the acidity, impeccably placated with a gentle sweet wash. A kernel of lime, jasmine and quince paste skitters across the energetic finish. Impressive length and driving persistence. Very fine. 96 points." - Ned Goodwin, Halliday

"Very pale lemon hue. Floral and juicy. A suggestion of quince paste richness underneath lime (kaffir leaf and Tahitian flesh), linen and polished stones. Flesh, drive and energy from a bright rip of acidity. Dry and slaking with a long textural frame and lemony echo. Quality and to be long lived. 95 points." - Regan Drew, Vinonotebook
