"The 2022 Foudre Ferment Riesling is mouthfilling and complete, with layers of bath salts, lime blossoms, custard, cheesecloth, Golden Delicious apples, nashi pears, a hint of lychee and a waft of rose petal. There are also notes of beeswax and florals in texture and character. In the mouth, the fruit is punctuated by a scintillating score of acidity that invigorates the tongue and lights up the flavors like a pinball machine. This is sensational. It's from an epic pocket of Victoria. 12% alcohol, sealed under screw cap." - Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate


"Aged in 2500 litre Austrian foudre. Intense and juicy flavour. Lime juice, apple pie, almond and peach tea, with a spicy cinnamon and white flower overlay, and a subtle petrol note. It’s zesty and packed with flavour, a real mouth-watering affair of honey and lime juice and lemon zest, a chalky pucker of phenolic grip, and a jasmine tea and apricot finish of excellent length and chalky texture. So much zing and energy. So good." - Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
