Tasting Notes
Halliday Top 100 Wines 2024
Single-vineyard riesling from Tea Tree in the Coal River Valley. Pale straw with green flashes, the wine announces its presence with a blast of pure lime, green apple and yuzu along with hints of jasmine, crushed stone, gingerbread, iced tea, mineral salts, beeswax and pressed flowers. Sam Connew's wines are all about detail and the 2023 release continues that theme. Impressive tension with a gentle swell of texture and a relentless mineral driveline pushing the wine forward. It's looking great. 95pts - Dave Brookes for Halliday Wine Companion
Fine riesling, verging on exceptional. Aromas of granny smith granita, lime sherbet, ginger and spiced quince. The acidity, a juicy balancing beam as the wine twists, turns and meanders across the wave of fruit intensity, staining the cheeks. A judicious dollop of sugar, draped across the finish mitigates severity, while promoting juiciness. Super length. Drink or hold. - 94pts, James Suckling
