Riesling is the most important grape for the Clare region and the Clare examples are some of the best the country produces. This is a beautiful example displaying excellent fruit definition with the typical lime, citrus peel and talc notes and is another classic in the making.

Wolfberger Alsace Yellow Riesling has become quite a favourite amongst our first Choice customers. Refreshing, yet racy on the mouth, this is a wine with lovely fruit flavours and a long finish. It's unlike what you've come to expect from Australian Rieslings with a touch of residual sweetness on the finish making it perfect with shellfish and sushi.

A delightfully zesty expression of Cool climate Riesling, sourced from some of the oldest Riesling vineyards in Tasmania. Perfumed with Spring blossoms, citrus and crisp red apple. Dry in style with a clean line of acidity and lime-like freshness.

Dry Riesling from Austria's famous Riesling region - provides rich texture with long acidity.

Established in the beautiful town of Barr, the André Lorentz estate covers 30 hectares, characterized by a great diversity of soils and exposures, thus offering a unique complexity to the wines of the House. Average age of the vineyard: 20 + years. Delicacy and complexity are the key words to define this Riesling. An assured minerality, embellished with white flowers and candied citrus fruits, on the nose and on the palate. Citrus and apple fruit flavours finish fresh with zesty acidity.

Biodynamic. Dry. In Alsace, the term Pinot Blanc is used to describe varietal wines or blends containing any percentage of Auxerrois. Weinbach’s Pinot Blanc is a blend of 70% Auxerrois and 30% Pinot Blanc. For fellow nerds, recent DNA studies indicate Auxerrois is a cross between Gouais Blanc and Pinot Noir. Weinbach’s blend comes from Clos des Capucins (with 45-year-old vines) and a plot from the limestone/clay soils at the foot of the Altenbourg vineyard. As with the dry Rieslings, the Pinot Blanc was pressed as whole bunches and raised over eight months in large-format wood (previous vintages were raised in tank). It's a far more layered and complex wine than you might expect from these varieties. It’s fleshy and mouth-filling with orchard fruits, white blossom and chamomile flavours and a textural core threaded through with punchy freshness. As with all these 2022s, it’s very hard to drink slowly!

Delicate pale lemon colour with a hint of green and bursts from the glass with intense rose‑petal, lychee and musk‑stick aromas, underscored by subtle cinnamon and green‑melon lift. On the palate it’s crisply dry yet softly textured, combining talc‑like phenolics with rose‑petal florals and a precise, linear mineral‑tinged finish.
