Rocky Gully (Frankland Estate) Riesling 2024

Riesling with both body and bones. This is such a good option for drinking. It tastes of lime, slate, melon and apple, with a run of chalk detectable through the finish. It works a treat. The value is high. CAMPBELL MATTINSON, the wine front

This is always a belter Riesling. Rocky Gully sits under the umbrella of Frankland Estate, one of Australia’s truly great Riesling producers and a benchmark name in the Frankland River. While Frankland Estate is celebrated for its pristine, detailed, and age-worthy expressions, Rocky Gully offers a more approachable, everyday window into the same exceptional region and philosophy. It is always a bit of a jaw-dropper when you try it considering its humble pricing.

The Rocky Gully Riesling is crafted with the same care, sourcing, and regional integrity that have long defined Frankland Estate’s reputation. It’s bright, vibrant, citrus-driven and wildly drinkable—showing off the tension, purity, and effortless charm that Frankland River Riesling delivers so well. Think of it as the fun, fruit-forward sibling to the more serious estate wines: built for immediate enjoyment but still unmistakably Frankland at heart.

Fresh, pure and with generous Riesling flavour, it never fails to hit the spot. It shows abundant blossom and stone fruit, citrus and melon on the nose. Bath salt, talc and delicate spice undertones. A nicely weighted wine with a generosity of flavour and white stone fruit. Delicate and precise on the palate with generosity of fruit, persistent length of flavour and soft texture.
