Reviews

94 James Suckling Offers fresh lemon, apple and pear, as well as sweetly fragrant spice. Pure and sleek palate with crisp apple, pear and lemon building into the long finish. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

94 Winepilot The cooler climes of the higher altitude Eden Valley slopes lend themselves perfectly to excellent expressions of riesling. Hewitson have a mantra of minimum additions of preservatives only at bottling to ensure purity. Vegan friendly too, if that’s important to you. Pale lemon and pure looking in the glass. The aromas of lime granita, lemon rind, flinty gun metal, ground talc, a suggestion of stone fruit and the lightest spritz of rosewater make for a comforting reassurance that the world is better with a glass of riesling in your hand. The tight and dry palate holds its vibrant acidity through the long finish, neatly balanced with a dusting of chalky grip and lingering citrus tones. A perfect foil for any sort of dumplings your heart (and stomach) desires!

93 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate The 2021 Gun Metal Riesling is tasted from magnum. I should mention that, as magnums are a magnificent way of storing wine. The wines stay fresher, for longer, and the only trouble is storing them. And working out when to drink them (of course, the magnum format has saved a great many bottles of mine from being opened, so it's a worthy investment). This is pithy and rocky, with florals, minerals and talc in equal measure. The fruit is frothy and soft, yet the acidity is like a coiled spring within. What a lovely, mineral wine; it's expansive and tight at once.

92 Wine Enthusiast This is a bright and bouncy Riesling with aromas of apple skins and fresh squeezed lime, with bass notes of kerosene and honey. The mouthfeel is chalky and pithy with razor's edge acidity and a long, limey finish. Balanced and varietal, this may be a bit austere for those unaccustomed to the bone dry Aussie Riesling style, but paired with the right cheese or seafood, or aged in bottle a few years for more honeyed complexity, and it should win over most hearts and palates.
