Long Rail Gully Riesling 2022
Long Rail Gully Riesling is a lively wine full of character. Abundant in fresh lime citrus fruit flavours which linger to a crisp refreshing finish. The 2019 Riesling is drinking very well now and will age with grace for years to come.
2019 was a great year for growing grapes, which has resulted in complex varietal wines. Beautifully ripe fruit was whole bunch pressed and then slowly cool fermented at 13'C to retain fruit aroma and character.
The flavour rich fruit produced a wine with a lifted nose of confectionary, lime and citrus.
The palate is fresh and lively with a classic crisp refreshing finish typical of good cool climate Riesling

Yet another riesling from the Canberra District to demonstrate how suited the continental climate is for the variety. Intense lime blossom, juice and zest combine with tingling acidity to provide a classic wine at a ridiculous price. Buy a truck load now, and drink a bottle a night for the next 10+ years. Well, you know that's not likely to happen, but the theory is a good one.
