Bay of Fires Tasmania Riesling 2022 showcases the unique qualities of Tasmania's Tamar Valley and Relbia regions. The 2022 vintage was a challenging yet rewarding season, where the Tamar Valley outperformed other sub-regions. Thanks to warm sunny days and minimal disease pressure, the fruit was hand-harvested with great care, resulting in clean, ripe flavours early in the season. The outcome is a Riesling that captures the region's potential for aromatic complexity, with solid flavour concentration and a lively structure.
The wine presents a pale straw colour with green hues, offering fragrant aromas of fresh lime and musk. The palate is juicy and vibrant, filled with luscious citrus flavours and crisp mineral acidity that makes it highly drinkable while young. However, it also has the structure to reward further ageing in the cellar. This 95 Point Rated wine, with a Gold Medal from James Halliday Wine Companion, is a stunning expression of Tasmania’s cool-climate terroir.
Bay of Fires Tasmania Riesling 2022 is the perfect match for grilled seafood, goat cheese, and spicy Asian dishes, where its zesty citrus and minerality provide the ideal contrast to richer flavours.
95 Point Rated - Dave Brookes James Halliday Wine Companion
"Pale straw in the glass with notes of lime, lemon zest, green apple and juicy peach fruits with hints of orange blossom, apple tarte Tatin, poached pears, crushed stone and lemon sherbet. Wonderful clarity and a tangy, mineral-laden driveline that provides velocity and frames the fruit beautifully. Great drinking."
