Imagine yourself transported to the rolling hills of South Australia, where the sun kisses the vines and the cool breezes whisper secrets of the land. This is where the Rosemount Estate Riesling originates, a wine that embodies the purity and vibrancy of its terroir. The 2009 vintage, as seen here, is a testament to the potential of Riesling in this region. The wine has a clear light yellow colour. The aromas are lifted, and intense, with an elegant fruit profile that expresses lime, citrus and subtle floral notes. The minerality on the palate is pronounced, showing a precise and refreshing finish. This is not a sweet, cloying Riesling, but rather a bone dry one, making it the perfect partner for a wide range of cuisine.
This wine is from Rosemount Estate, a well-regarded winery renowned for its meticulous winemaking and dedication to showcasing the character of the South Australian vineyards.

The wine is bottled in a standard 750ml bottle, a vessel that protects and preserves the wine until it is time to enjoy. The alcohol content is at 11.5%, making it very drinkable and versatile for occasions.
Let the Rosemount Estate Riesling dance on your palate, its citrusy notes awakening your senses, while its minerality and floral touch invite you to enjoy the harmony and balance of flavors.
