Mount Barker Riesling

Crisp ~ Floral ~ Lime

From the heart of the Mount Barker subregion in Western Australia’s Great Southern, this Riesling comes exclusively from Block 6 of the Langton Vineyard, just a few hundred metres from the winery. The 2025 vintage delivered a cool, late start and a long, even ripening period, allowing exceptional fruit balance and delicacy. Hand-selected parcels were harvested at night to preserve freshness and cold-fermented to showcase the pure lime and floral characters that define this classic style.

Why You’ll Love It ❤️

  • 🍋 Signature Block 6 fruit – pure, floral and bursting with lime and citrus blossom.
  • 🌸 Cool-climate freshness – crisp acidity with hallmark Mount Barker minerality.
  • 🧊 Night-harvested & cool-fermented – retains fragrance, focus and tension.
  • 🪨 Dry, tangy & textural – lemon-sherbet energy balanced by fine texture and depth.
  • 🏆 Critically acclaimed – 92 Points (Ray Jordan): “Crisp, fine and slightly spicy… subtle hints of lime with a zesty, slatey palate.”
