A couple of years on from the wine that remarkably won James Halliday's Wine of the Year, we have here another cracking release of this unique and wonderful Australian Riesling.
With ruthless grape sorting, wild ferment in the Foudre, extended time on skins and plenty of lees stirring, this Riesling is all about texture and complexity. But the thing that sets this majestic Riesling apart is the searing acid backbone which drives the wine from beginning to end.
This is one of Best's more limited release wines and is never made in large amounts, but it consistently finds itself amongst the finest Rieslings in Victoria.
Enjoy the ride.
