Lavender and potpourri lace the aromatics of the 2021 Riesling, with preserved lemon, green apple and pink grapefruit forming the core of perfume. This is lean and restrained in the mouth, with a firm whack of phenolic austerity that shapes the flavors and the experience. This is a smart wine that shows the coiled acidity that Frankland River achieves so effortlessly.
Winery
Very fragrant white and yellow florals. A nice mix of vibrant limes, bath salts, tangerine and green tea combine to give an alluring complex nose. A soft and delicate wine with persistence and presence. Citrus and white stone fruit abounds with an edge of talc and a salty mineral finish. Exceptional balance interwoven with a creamy texture. Consistent with the now well-established Riesling style from Frankland Estate this wine displays the balance of pristine fruit flavour, precise delicate acidity, medalled with generosity of fruit, resulting in an exceptional wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared with the confidence it will continue to develop further complexity over the next 10 years.

Varietal: Riesling

The pale skinned fruits of the Riesling grapevine have been grown in and around Germany's Rhine Valley for centuries, and contributed much to the country's wine culture. Today, Riesling grapes are grown and processed in several countries around the world, where they are prized for their ability to grow well in colder climates, and their unique flavors and characteristics. Riesling grapes produce an impressive array of wines, including fine semi sweet and dessert wines, to excellent dry white wines and sparkling varieties, all which allow the grape to shine through as a premier example of an excellent white wine varietal. One of the things which makes Riesling such a special grape is the fact that it is highly 'terroir expressive', meaning that the features of the land it is grown on can come across well in the flavors and aromas in the wine. As such, it isn't unusual to find flavors of white stone, or smoky ash-like notes in a fine Riesling alongside the more usual orchard fruit flavors more commonly associated with good white wines.

Country: Australia

With over sixteen thousand hectares of Australian land now under vine, Australia has become something of a world leader in regards to wine production. One of Australia's key attributes to their success has been their willingness to leave traditional vineyard practices to one side, and develop techniques which are perfectly suited to a New World country. Modern Australian wineries take into consideration the climate and the unique soil types which cover much of their country, and have had fantastic results from cross-breeding programs and blending practices which make the most of the grape varietals which thrive most successfully there, notably the Shiraz and Chardonnay grapes. In recent years, Australia has been lauded as the 'most influential' wine producing country in the world, and the rest of the New World is looking down under for inspiration, and the ability to produce comparable fine wines on their own terrain.
