The 2025 growing season delivered cool, moderate temperatures that allowed for a long, slow ripening period, preserving natural acidity while developing exceptional fruit purity and aromatic depth. Rooted in the region’s distinct soils, the vines produce fruit characterized by vibrant citrus concentration, intense floral aromatics, and a chalky mineral backbone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cellar, winemakers Alain Rousseau and John Bown focused on minimal intervention to allow the vineyard’s terroir to shine. The hand-harvested grapes were gently de-stemmed and crushed before de-juicing under light pressure, followed by an overnight cold-settling. Fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks using select yeasts, after which the wine matured on its fine ferment lees for eight weeks to enhance texture and palate weight. Exceptionally dry with approximately 2 g\/L of residual sugar, the nose bursts with fresh white floral aromas, lifted lime zest, honeysuckle, and subtle lemongrass. The palate is crisp, energetic, and precise, delivering juicy citrus and delicate orchard fruit flavors balanced by taut acidity and a stony, slate-like minerality that ensures outstanding cellar longevity of up to 15 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Fresh, floral and mineral\u003cbr\u003eWhite florals, lifted lime zest, fresh lemongrass, honeysuckle, and slatey mineral notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Crisp, precise and vibrant\u003cbr\u003eDelicate citrus, green apple, and lemongrass carried by natural acidity and a dense, chalky texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long, clean and structured\u003cbr\u003ePersistent lime pith, saline minerality, and wet stone nuances with a bright, refreshing conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Light straw with aromas of grapefruit and green apple, hints of white flowers, Key lime pie, crushed stone, almond blossom, lime zest and clover.”\u003c\/em\u003e — Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion, 92 Points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eBrand - Frogmore Creek\u003cbr\u003eStyle - White Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal - Riesling\u003cbr\u003eCountry - Australia\u003cbr\u003eState - Tasmania\u003cbr\u003eRegion - Coal River Valley\u003cbr\u003eVintage - 2025\u003cbr\u003eABV - 12.5%\u003cbr\u003eSize - 750ml\u003cbr\u003eSweetness - Dry\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Frogmore Creek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44334791426135,"sku":"FROG-RIES-25","price":28.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/f1d7a8f9-f244-47a5-90c8-67aac6556b31.webp?v=1790223024","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/frogmore-creek-riesling-2025","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
