Pizzini Riesling 2024

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 lemon and orange blossom aromas, supported by a clean minerality. The palate is zippy with lemon and lime zest characters and bright, crunchy acidity plus talcum powder texture and amazing length. Perfect with lightly crumbed salt and chilli calamari.

Fruit for our Riesling comes from three premium cool climate vineyard sites within the King Valley with elevations between 350 and 600m above sea level. The combination of this premium fruit provides enhanced citrus characteristics, freshness and vitality. The grapes are machine harvested at night, then crushed, de-stemmed and pressed lightly, enhancing the delicacy and elegance of the wine. The juice was fermented using selected yeast which enhances citrus notes and palate structure. It was then cool fermented to retain freshness and varietal character.
