Discover the best wines made with Riesling as a single variety or as a blend of Fleurieu.
Crystalline, taut whites with vibrant acidity and aromas of citrus, green apple, white flowers, vineyard peach and mineral/petrol notes with age. Made as dry (Trocken, Alsace), off-dry (Kabinett, Spätlese) and sweet (Auslese, Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese, late harvest). Star of the Moselle, Rheingau, Alsace AOC and Wachau. Also exported to Clare Valley and Finger Lakes.
Wine peninsula south of Adelaide, kingdom of sunny Shiraz. McLaren Vale as star: powerful, velvety reds with signature notes of blackberry, black plum, chocolate, sweet spices, eucalyptus and a black-olive touch, round tannins and a generous palate — centenarian old vines. Firm Cabernet (blackcurrant, mint), perfumed old-vine Grenache (cherry, garrigue). Ample Chardonnay as white.
