2024

95pts "In line with many as a 2024 vintage character, another delicate styling showcasing pretty aromas and a faint note of lavender and rose petal. Subtle acidity feels as well, celebrating the purity and fine beauty of the variety. A lovely wine. Drink now–2034." - SA Wine Guide 2025

94pts - Wine Enthusiast

94pts "Bright pale straw with green flashes. The palate is precise and tightly structured, delivering citrus intensity supported by firm acidity and fine texture. A refined Eden Valley Riesling with clarity and drive." - Vinomasters

93pts, Special Value "Classic regional notes of Bickford's lime cordial, freshly squeezed limes, grapefruit, Christmas lily, crushed quartz, orange blossom, mineral salts and lemongrass. Plenty of cut and drive on the palate with a marble-like core of limey fruit propelled forwards by fine, racy acidity, focusing to a dry, limey end point. Boom!" - Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion

93pts "Cotton wool, talc, wet stones, citrus blossom, flecks of musk and rosewater before a soft sweet apple tone supported with almost a ginger spice. Plenty to enjoy with chalky texture and persistence, etched well by a fine acid vein. A very tidy release indeed." - Regan Drew, Vino Notebook

91pts "Very linear and precise, with aromas of lime sherbet, lemon peel, cotton candy and river stones. The palate is light-bodied with tangy acidity and an underlying texture. Very fun and friendly." - James Suckling

90pts + SILVER "Bright pale yellow with honeysuckle, lemon and light vanilla on the nose, this fresh white opens with elegant fruit and balanced acidity, finishing dry and subtly floral with refined simplicity." - London Wine Competition 2025

2023

93pts "Slinky and textural with notes of fresh lime juice, grapefruit and apple along with hints of orange blossom, jasmine, crushed quartz and a distant whiff of lemon barley. Some nice phenolic architecture here, and a bright minerally seam of acidity delivers the fruit to the finish line with just the right amount of velocity." - Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion

93pts "Pretty aromas of citrus blossom, white flowers, lemon pith and wet slate. Quite juicy, fresh and zesty on the palate. There's a lusciousness of lemon and lime, along with tangy, pithy acidity. There's lovely texture, mouth-feel and presence, and the length is impressive. A smart off-dry style of riesling." - Aaron Brasher, The Real Review

2022

92pts + GOLD Medal - London Wine Competition 2023

94pts + SILVER (Excellence) - 2022 Canberra International Riesling Challenge

92pts "Fragrant lime, lemon curd, grapefruit, guava, slatey and hint of tonic water aromas. Plentiful lemon curd, guava, and lime flavours with appealing fruit sweetness. Crisp finish and good mineral length." - The Vintage Journal

92pts "Pretty tightly coiled at the moment but with a bit of coaxing fresh lime, grapefruit, crushed stone, almond blossom and orange water notes come through. There's just a tweak of phenolic texture before the sizzling acidity whisks it off to a crisp, focussed and nervy finish." - Halliday Wine Companion

92pts "Very pale hue. Talc and baby powder with sweet white blossom, rosewater, apple skin, flint, mandarin and stone fruit skin. Neatly etched, textural frame with delicacy balanced by enough generosity of sweet flesh to allow consumption now or later." - Regan Drew, Vino Notebook

91pts "Papaya, sweet spice and talcum aromatics. A fuller style of riesling with plump lime and green papaya fruit. Made in an off-dry style but there’s ample acidity and a wet stone mineral note that seems to balance it well." - Stuart Knox, The Real Review

90pts "A very straight and direct Eden Valley dry riesling with discreet citrus aromas and a touch of herbal freshness. Rather easy drinking for this category, thanks to the well-integrated acidity on the medium-bodied palate." - James Suckling

2021

GOLD Medal - London International Wine Competition 2022

94pts "A tart, tense web of crackling acidity, there’s juiciness and a sense of very high drinkability. Sourdough, ginger and preserved lemon scents. Quite rich and forward in perfume but wholly appealing. Green apple and ripe citrus fruit characters with nutty savouriness in tow. Seriously appealing, savoury style." - Mike Bennie, Gourmet Traveller Wine

93pts "Flint, spice and baby powder talc underscored by apple flesh, lime skin, mandarin pith and a suggestion of white stone fruit. Textural dry grip defines this and doesn’t denigrate from the lightness and exactness of the finish. Open and approachable." - Regan Drew, Vino Notebook

91pts "Super fresh aromatics and some flint, as well as lemon, lime and spice. Lots of talc. The palate has a juicy, fleshy feel with an open-knit apple and lime focus. Chalky." - James Suckling

90pts "Tropical fruit aromas with a hint of florals as well. Supple and textured across the tongue with ripe tropical notes and a limey spritz throughout." - Stuart Knox, The Real Review

2020

93pts "Made for texture and complexity, this has a thread of wet slate to the abundant, fine and fresh lemon-peel and peach aromas. The palate is very smooth, soft and almost fleshy with an edge of fresh, lemon-lime acidity cutting a crisp, pure finish." - James Suckling

93pts "Richer and more overt aromas than the 2019, with a line of citrus pith (mandarin and lime) along with apple-pie filling, honeysuckle blossom and a stony dryness. Shows purity and structure with enough flesh over fine bones, finishing long with the subtlest amount of grip." - Regan Drew, Vino Notebook

91pts "Lovely balance is the overall impression. There is real richness to the follow-through, enhanced by a touch of tannin grip." - Huon Hooke, The Real Review

92pts - Decanter Australian Riesling Roundup, June 2022

92pts "Refreshing and delicate nose: damp stones, citrus pith, apple flesh with plenty of light floral blossom and a hint of sweeter honeysuckle. Dry, and showing fine purity as the fruit tails into a textural, structural exploration." - Regan Drew, Vino Notebook

90pts - The Wine Front

93pts "Very smart mature riesling." - Huon Hooke, The Real Review

93pts "The bouquet is of lemon sherbet - like opening a packet of 'Whizz-Fizz', then a swirl of honeysuckle, white flowers and sweet citrus. Flavours of ripe red apple and nectarine, a thread of sweetness just perceptible but skilfully woven into the fabric of the wine." - Steven Creber, Halliday

93pts "Exquisite riesling. Floral fluid, gently textural, bursting with life, pure. Slatey, gunmetal-like character meets lemon sorbet and an assortment of florals. It's as delicious as it is fine." - Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front
