About Freycinet Riesling 2025
Freycinet Riesling from Tasmania's East Coast is a wine of striking purity and precision. On the nose, it opens with an inviting burst of fresh lime zest and white peach, underpinned by delicate florals of jasmine and orange blossom. A whisper of slate and crushed river stone lends a cool, mineral tension that is quintessentially Tasmanian. On the palate, the wine is taut and focused, with vibrant acidity cutting through generous fruit weight. Flavours of Meyer lemon, green apple, and ripe nectarine unfold with elegance, supported by a fine chalky minerality and a subtle hint of ginger spice. The finish is long, clean, and refreshing, with lingering citrus oil and mineral notes that speak clearly of the cool maritime terroir of the Freycinet Peninsula.
