2023 Plantagenet 'Angevin' Riesling

100% Riesling grapes from our Wyjup Vineyard. Ashen straw colour.

The palate is piercingly focused, with an intense citrus-flavoured core filling the mid-palate and a beautifully structured, wet pebble minerality. The abundant natural acidity provides the backbone for elegant fruit flavours.  A very long, clean finish. 

Cellaring potential of 10 - 14 years. 

Try this with WA Akoya Oysters or Crispy Pork Belly Bites.

93 points - "Beautiful Riesling from the famous Wyjup Vineyard in Mount Barker. Opens with a healthy aroma of lime dominant citrus against muted floral scents. Such a good season delivers fruit that is intense yet precise and controlled with a fine natural acidity. The palate has a degree of tension creating a fine minerally thread through to the sustained finish." - Ray Jordan, Wine Pilot

92 Points - "From a single vineyard. Aromas of candied mixed citrus peel, lime juice, talc, lychee and faint vanilla. The palate is citrusy and lively, a little juicy with a bone-dry finish. There's a zestiness to the flavours: pink grapefruit, green apple juice, something gently sweet, though that finish is all chalkiness and pucker. Delivers the goods." - Mike Bennie, Wine Companion 

92 Points - "Pale lime and lemon tints. Lemongrass and seaspray aromas. Tight and focused on the palate, lemon and saline notes at the core as acidity cracks the whip and dives it long and lean to a bone-dry finish. Nervy now but cellaring will be well rewarded." - Stuart Knox, The Real Review.
