Product Notes

Frankland Estate Smith Cullam Riesling is an elegant wine boasting pristine provenance from the esteemed Frankland River region in Western Australia. Marrying power and subtle intensity, the wine greets the nose with a complex bouquet of floral tones, underscored by lime and green apple notes. On the palate, a delicate balance of ripe acidity and subtle sweetness leads to a prolonged, satisfying finish. This Riesling shows impressive depth of flavour, showcasing zesty citrus, white peach and mineral nuances. With its layered nuances and beautiful aging potential, it stands as a genuine testament to the winemaker's mastery.

Tasting Notes

A complex, beautifully balanced combination of fruit intensity, complexity of flavour and alluring finish. A wine of exceptional elegance and poise where texture is enhanced and massaged throughout this wine by the combination of fruit integrity, natural acidity and a well-crafted retention of residual sugar. This “off-dry” (RS:16 grams/ltr) style results in enhanced fragrance and aromatics, provides a tension and energy to the wine at the same time achieving presence and a salivating “morishness”.
