  3. Domaine la Roubine La Grange de Briguieres Sablet 2022
    Domaine la Roubine La Grange de Briguieres Sablet 2022

    The personality of the maker - generous and jovial - is on full display via black and red fruits while blue florals and the liquorice that jumps out of the glass, give the wine it's aromatic swagger. On the palate too, it's direct; big on flavour and impact with that same red and black fruited attack laying the groundwork for a more complex array of mineral, hung meat, liquorice, dried herbs and smoke. Pretty much like falling head first into a hypothetical vat the Southern Rhone itself. Medium to full bodied with plenty of structure to cope with anything from the bbq to the one-pot wonder.

    It's one of the most authentic things I drink each year, capturing  the ethos of the fading French country wine in a glass. Rustic, reassuring and ultimately flat out delicious. MICHAEL MCNAMARA, PWS

    Pressing Matters R0 Riesling 2021
    The tension of zero residual sugar in the cool and refreshing 2021 season is pronounced indeed, demanding a great deal of time for its razor acidity to assimilate. It's packed with all the crunchy Granny smith apple, kaffir lime and lemon fruit concentration and lingering persistence to go the distance. TYSON STELZER, James Halliday

  5. Dr Loosen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett 2023
    Dr Loosen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett 2023

    The 2023 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett shows the typical refined and fragrant slate and bright, elegant Riesling aromas of this famous terroir. The 2023 Kabinett is light, round and lush, effortless in its generosity and finesse and stimulatingly saline in its delicate and irresistible finish. This is a superb Kabinett for impenitent drinking. It is a little drier than the likewise beautiful Würzgarten. STEPHAN REINHARDT, the wine advocate

    Very fresh and vibrant, with terrific white tree fruit and peach aromas, but this has terrific structure for a Mosel Kabinett, the fine tannins underlining the fruit beautifully. Very long finish for a wine with such a light body. STUART PIGOTT, james suckling

    The 2023 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett offers hints of wet stone, clementine and Amalfi lemon peel tones on its aromatic, serene nose. The palate's slight sweetness and juiciness makes the mouth water. It's dripping with freshness and verve. There's such a citric quality that defines this exuberant wine. ANNE KREBIEHL, vinous

  6. Pewsey Vale Contours Riesling 2016 Cellar Release
    Pewsey Vale Contours Riesling 2016 Cellar Release
    So vibrant for it’s age, this has great concentration of candied-lime and grapefruit-zest character. Terrific structure and energy on the driving palate, but all of this is wrapped in rich citrus fruit to create stunningly complete harmony. Very long and compact finish that suggests this has at least a further decade of aging potential. JAMES SUCKLING

    Pale colour. Classic developed lime, toasty aromas and flavours with hints of oilskin and sage. The palate is superbly balanced and in clockwork condition with attractive fruit complexity, underlying minerally notes, fine lacy textures, very good mid-palate viscosity and fine linear fresh acidity. A touch al-dente at the finish. A beautiful example of Eden Valley Riesling showing the fidelity of vineyard site and masterful winemaking. ANDREW CAILLARD

    Brash Higgins RSM Semillon Riesling 2022
    From 1975 plantings in Blewitt Spring, riesling (70%) and semillon (30%) are picked together, kept on skins for a couple of days, then basket pressed for co-ferment in old barrels and one steel vat. This is a fuller-bodied expression of two varieties that are often represented in more trim form. Lightly oily and saline of feel, this still has zest and verve, with pungent lime oil, stone fruit, lemon pith, mint, fresh fenugreek and a bitter tonic note. It's an engagingly eccentric blend.

    Our first batch that explores a longer elevage of two years. The first in ceramic eggs which we feel bring an elevated minerality during fermentation and maturation. Then the wine is stirred up and racked to a seasoned 2000l foudre. Here the wine evolves slowly as the lees settle out and protect the wine. BRYAN MARTIN

    Rivulet Glaziers Bay Riesling 2023
    A lovely riesling from Keira O'Brien, sourced from the Elsewhere vineyard between Cygnet and Huonville in the Huon Valley. Pale straw with green flashes and an attractive aromatic profile of freshly squeezed lime, green apple, christmas lily, crushed stone and a whiff of ozone. Detailed and tight with a lovely sense of tension and clarity, finishing sapid and fruit pure with plenty of drive. DAVE BROOKES, James Halliday

    Schmolzer and Brown Obstgarten K Riesling 2024
    (our note) Very pallid straw hue. The nose is so delicate, finely musky, crushed salted rose petal-esque. A really pretty crystalline impression, with lime juice, green citrus zest and taut freshness. The palate is all focussed purity, feather weight, white peach and green apples, light and dancing with a touch of sweetness breadthening the wine to length. Pure and lemonadey.

    Mount Horrocks Cordon Cut 2024 375mll

    A highly risky and complex process, the making of this wine is very much about seat-of-pants decision making and this is where the experience of 30 vintages certainly helps!” says Stephanie.

    The high-risk part comes after the canes that feed the fruit are cut – causing that fruit to concentrate – effectively using the vine as a drying rack for the fruit. Much depends on the weather conditions that follow – sunny and dry conditions work wonders; wet, cold or windy conditions all bring challenges. Stephanie uses intuition to decide the day to harvest.

    This is a unique, delicious, concentrated wine that delivers all the hallmarks of riesling – citrus, florals and spice; beautifully expressed through an intense yet perfectly balanced palate and a pristine, clean finish.

  17. Domaine de la Mordoree Cotes du Rhone 2022
    Domaine de la Mordoree Cotes du Rhone 2022

    From one of the Rhône Valley’s most respected names, Domaine de la Mordorée brings precision, polish, and a touch of wild southern soul to every bottle. Crafted from organic and biodynamically farmed vineyards, Mordorée’s Côtes du Rhône Rouge typically blends Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, offering vibrant dark fruit, garrigue, and a thread of spice. It's medium-bodied but layered, with the finesse and polish that set this estate apart.

    This is everyday Rhône done exceptionally well—a wine with real personality, balance, and enough depth to elevate it.

    The 2022 Riesling Kabinett Bruno is bright, purely slatey and crystalline on the saline and elegant, herbaceous nose.

    Brimming with fresh apple fruit - green, red and yellow - this is a very bright and refreshing Mosel Kabinett that's light-bodied and barely off-dry.

  31. Frankland Estate Isolation Ridge Riesling 2023
    Frankland Estate Isolation Ridge Riesling 2023

    One of the very best Isolation Ridge rieslings produced. It’s from an exceptional vintage showing the pristine purity and minerally tension of great rieslings. Comes from a combination of clones planted in 1988. Now this is not your usual riesling. It was left on lees for nine months and about 10% was matured in oak. The result is a wine of tremendous texture, with an intricate weave of fine acid and intensely flavoured fruit. Has a crunchy vibrant minerality on the finish. Exceptional wine. (97) RAY JORDAN, Wine Pilot

    Sourced from the original 1988 plantings on ironstone gravels over clay. Some guava and dried mango exoticism, makrut lime leaves and wet stones. It's super precise and poised, a wine of balletic balance with a piercing acid line of jaw dropping intensity and drive. A masterclass in coiled tension, restrained power and the beauty of Frankland River riesling. (97) NICK RYAN, Weekend Australian

    One of the great rieslings of Australia. This is textural as much as pure, with lime blossom, ginger flower and a touch of beeswax. Flavours of Bickford's lime cordial, lemon curd, mandarin and zest caress the palate; the talcy-fine acidity is lipsmacking. (96) JANE FAULKNER

    Granite Hills Riesling 2013 Cellar Release

    Pale straw-green; the intense, yet tight, bouquet of citrus blossom leads in to a piercing palate with a seamless fusion of lime, apple and slatey acidity. It is the acidity that underwrites a 20-year future for the wine, its statement of the very cool place of its birth plain for all to see. (96) JAMES HALLIDAY

    Deepish yellow colour, with lightly-browned toast and honey aromas, a trace of paraffin wax and a hint of beeswax, too. In the mouth, it's generously flavoured, soft and rounded, with some burnt lime and lemon crème brûlée characters. A superb mature example of Australian riesling. (95) HUON HOOKE, tasted 2022

    Aged release. A slight green-straw hue and a very good colour for its age. It's showing no signs of slowing down soon, thanks to the acidity across the fine palate. There are still lively lime juice and zest flavours dallying with the tertiary elements - a hint of toastiness and lime marmalade. (95) JANE FAULKNER, tasted 2022

    The 2021 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett offers a clear, precise and pure, lovely slate-driven bouquet with citric fruit and some cassis and gooseberry aromas. Crystalline, linear and fresh on the palate, this is an elegant, lush and silky-textured, precise and almost sharp but also round and finely sweet Kabinett from the Himmelreich that shows red and black currant notes on the aftertaste. A gorgeous Kabinett that has to be aged for 10-15 years. Sourced from 80-year-old vines on pure gray slate. Bottled with a spectacular total acidity of 12 grams per liter, but you don't feel the grams of acidity; and believe me, it's serious but balanced by extract and almost 50 grams per liter of residual sugar. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022. STEPHAN REINHARDT, The Wine

    This vineyard site is renowned for charming wines and this has some appley charm in the nose, but there’s also impressive depth and structure behind it.

Moderately weighted and with a lovely juiciness, it's both balanced and elegant, featuring bright acidity and a long, mouthwatering finish. The grapes are sourced 80% from the Ventoux region, with the remaining 20% coming from alluvial soils in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. YOHAN CASTAING, The Wine Advocate

    Pikes The Merle Riesling 2024


    The Merle never fails to sit among the very best releases of Clare Riesling, year after year, no matter what price bracket you quote. For me, this is one of our iconic Rieslings. The colour for this latest release is a near transparent lemon. The wine is elegant and refined, fresh and focused and offers drive, impeccable balance and endless length. A line of sea breeze acidity runs the length, the intensity never drops for a moment, and that freshness is still evident throughout. Fabulous stuff, this latest release is a worthy addition to the lineage. Enjoy over the next twenty years. Drink 2024-2044. (97) KEN GARGET, WinePilot.com

    I'd be happy to lie on my back and have someone drip feed this Pikes The Merle Riesling into my mouth for the rest of my days. What an impeccable wine this is. Pure, focused, detailed and delicate all at the same time, class oozes from every pore...(97) QWineReviews.com

    Presence on the palate, bordering on weight, with fruit intensity presented as a wide, compelling sheet of flavour. Lime, bath salts and slate, with florals and spices – and citrus rind – for afters. Here we are again on the shore where elegance and power meet. There’s a whisper of reduction in play and an impression that this wine has been made to be cellared. And yet, right now, it’s immensely more-ish. It’s another belter from Pikes. (95) MIKE BENNIE, www.winefront.com

    The 2024 The Merle Riesling is powerful and tightly controlled, with a long spool of flavor—lemongrass, white pepper, cheesecloth, bay leaf and scratched lime—that draws out over the finish. I like this wine in its youth, and I like it as an older wine as well. It's very smart and eloquently of place. 11.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

    All destemmed and made in concrete tanks, the 2022 Cotes du Rhone comes from two small parcels of vines. Mainly Grenache, with smaller amounts of Mourvèdre and Syrah, it's a terrific value this vintage, offering up loads of black cherries and blackberries, garnished with an appealing waft of garrigue. Full-bodied and soft, it's awfully easy to drink and enjoy. JOW CZERWINSKI, The Wine Advocate

    Charvin Cotes du Rhone Le Poutet 2020
    The nose carries a light essence of cooked plum fruit, strawberry jam, pepper, peony. It’s wide, will emerge and evolve well. The palate is close-knit, herbal-peppery, lined with red cherry, brisk fruits, cut in the tannins that still stand a little on the outside. Its frame is a bit skeletal, can amplify. There is rocky powder emphasis on the close, the length good. I like its gradual upping of the tempo, depth. It has interest, hidden corners, is not an open book. “It’s very fresh, always had foundation. 2019 is powerful, but 2020 bears jolis fruits, has true class, an identity,” Laurent Charvin. JOHN LIVINGSTON-LEARMONTH, drinkrhone.com,

    A bold and expressive Cotes-du-Rhone with excellent wild blackberry fruit plus notes of meat and licorice. A big and well-structured wine that gets a real kick at the finish from the crunchy freshness. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. STUART PIGGOT, James Suckling

    Stand back as this riesling lightning strike arrives. Complex nose of dried flowers and summer meadows. Ripe and juicy, but also very elegant and crisp with stunning mineral freshness at the very long pointed finish. Delicious, but also excellent potential. STUART PIGGOT

    Smoky notes of lemon balm and apricot, cool and remarkably refined. Playful acidity propels the chiselled sweetness across a sleek and dancing palate. Sophisticated and lingering spicy finish. PAULA SIDORE, jancisrobinson.com

    Dark, full red; the nose has a restrained aroma led by blackberry, carries a sure, rather neat sweetness, shows some oily southern tones, as it should. The palate serves attractive, suave content with spark in its red fruits, has a good tone, the tannins well on the inside, a snug fit. 2023, decant. **** JOHN LIVINGSTONE-LEARMONTH, drinkrhone.com

    Mont Redon Lirac 2021

    (vat/casks) dark red; the nose has a salted tone, with a hint of violets and gently aromatic black fruit on the inside, a touch of charry oak. The palate serves comfortable content with a tasty centre, bonny juice in the fruit with a ripe level of tannin accompanying it. It’s a well organised, gourmand Lirac rouge, has southern virtues of round, textured appeal, the fruit lasting well. The oak on the finish needs to drop back, so leave until mid-2024. It would have been more highly rated with less oak. 14.5°. 80,000 b. 70% Gren, 20% Syr, 10% Mourv. JOHN LIVINGSTONE-LEARNMONTH  drinkrhone.com,

    A deeply hued and surprisingly concentrated 2021, the 2021 Lirac has lots of ripe cherry and Provençal herb and spice notes to go with a medium-bodied, layered, elegant style on the palate. It's a terrific 2021 that readers will love. JEB DUNNUCK 

    70 % Grenache, 20 % Syrah and 10 % Mourvèdre totally de-stemmed with ferment up to 3 weeks and aged 2/3 in tank and 1/3 in barrel for 18 months before assembling and bottling and ageing another 4 months under cork before sale. These vineyards were purchased in 1997.
