Pizzini Riesling 2023

A fabulous example of King Valley Riesling – this wine is crisp, delicate and has beautifully aromatics. The wine is straw colour with a green hue. The aromas are vibrant with lifted florals, lemon, lime blossom and talcum powder notes, supported by a clean minerality. The palate is zippy and lingering with lemons, limes and bright, crunchy acidity plus amazing length. Perfect with lightly crumbed salt and chilli calamari.

The Riesling comes from one of our young hillside vineyard blocks. The grapes were machine harvested at night, then crushed, de-stemmed and pressed lightly, providing delicacy and elegance to the wine. The juice was fermented using selected yeast to enhance citrus notes and palate structure. It was then cool fermented to retain freshness and varietal character.
