Description
About The Wine
A juicy crystalline riesling on both the nose and palate. The mouth feel is textural and juicy with a long finish of fruit and rounded acidity. The soft and delicate approach builds with a combination of lime and bath salts. Delicate crystalline flavours on the palate show a dry precise riesling with texture, spice and delicate acidity that give the wine focus and fantastic length. Consistent with the now well-established Rieslings from Frankland Estate this wine displays the balance of pristine fruit flavours and precise and delicate acidity, medalled with generosity of fruit, resulting in an exceptional wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared with the confidence it will continue to develop further complexity over the next 10 years.
About Frankland Estate
Nestled in one of the most isolated wine regions in Western Australia, it was only appropriate for husband-and-wife Barrie Smith and Judi Cullam to name their vineyard Isolation Ridge when they founded it in 1988. Now in the very capable hands of siblings Hunter and Elizabeth Smith, whom have converted the vineyard to fully organic since 2009. This shows through each and every wine they produce.
