Ashli Rose Riesling 2025
A beautifully aromatic and expressive Riesling from Tasmania's Tamar Valley, offering fragrant notes of citrus blossom, rose petals and fresh lime, complemented by preserved lemon, golden nectarine and a hint of tropical fruit. The palate is vibrant and juicy, with ripe stone fruit, delicate floral characters and a subtle touch of sweetness balanced by lively, zesty acidity. Elegant and generous, with excellent length and a refreshing citrus finish.
Winemaking: Crafted by Ashli Mani from fruit grown at the family's Iron Pot Bay Vineyard in Rowella, in the western Tamar Valley. The region's long, cool growing season allows Riesling to develop expressive aromatics and ripe fruit flavours while retaining natural acidity. The resulting wine balances generous fruit character with freshness and precision.
Food Match: Prawn toast with sesame, Thai green chicken curry, freshly shucked Tasmanian oysters or grilled prawns with lime and ginger.
