2025 Landscape Riesling

 The 2025 vintage is a blend of multiple clones from our Tamar Valley and Coal River Valley vineyards. The grapes were harvested over several days in early April and gently whole bunch-pressed to tank. The juice was cold-settled and racked clean to stainless steel, inoculated with aromatic yeast, and fermented at cool temperatures until dry. The components of the blend were matured for 4 months on lees before final assembly in tank. 

'Exhibiting excellent fruit purity and poise, the wine shows Granny Smith apple, lemongrass, and lime cordial nuances on the nose. The palate is taut and sleek with excellent focus and drive, finishing persistent and mouth-watering.'

'The fruit for this 2025 Landscape Riesling is from two vineyards, one of which is certified organic—Tamar Valley—with the balance from a second vineyard in the Coal River Valley that is in organic conversion; thus, the wine is not certified organic, but it will be in the future. Aromatically, the wine is fleshy and exotic, with an array of yellow fruits, fennel, aniseed, green apple and preserved lemon. The wine is tightly coiled and floral, with chalky phenolics and wet river stones. It's a gorgeous wine with intense acidity, as displayed by the numbers (the pH is 2.83 and the total acidity is 8.78 grams per litre), and yet the mouthfeel is plump and fleshy, too. This is very good. 12.5% alcohol.'
