The 2025 Frogmore Creek Riesling showcases the signature cool-climate precision of Southern Tasmania's Coal River Valley. Crafted by winemakers Alain Rousseau and John Bown, the fruit undergoes cool tank fermentation followed by eight weeks resting on lees, giving this pristine, dry-style Riesling an intriguing textural depth alongside its vibrant primary fruit characteristics.
On the nose, the wine opens with lifted floral aromas of honeysuckle and white blossom, coupled with vibrant citrus, fresh lemongrass, and subtle hints of green apple. The palate is crisp, taut, and energetic, delivering energetic lime zest, white peach, and herbal undertones that are impeccably balanced by bright natural acidity and a distinctive, slatey mineral backbone. The finish is long, clean, and chalky, leaving a refreshing saline minerality that makes it an exceptional pairing for fresh oysters, seared scallops, or lightly spiced Asian dishes.
