Riesling is an aromatic variety that produces intensely fragrant and flavoured wines of exceptional character. Notes of citrus, honeysuckle, blossoms, green apple and mineral are commonly seen.
With concurrent high acidity and comparable low alcohol, the wines retain an enviable freshness which many other varieties lack.
Today, Rieslings are invariably made as dry styles, making them suitable for serving as aperitifs. Because of this, varietal wines were often referred to as ‘Rhine Riesling’. Today they are known simply as Riesling and the variety is grown across Australia.
Riesling is a variety that is much loved by winemakers and wine connoisseurs due to its intense flavours and its defined palate structure. In recent years, there has been much noise in the press about the ‘great Riesling revival’. |
