Kate Hill Riesling 2022
The Kate Hill Riesling, notably the 2022 vintage, showcases a vibrant profile characteristic of Tasmanian cool-climate Rieslings.

On the palate, expect a bright, refreshing acidity complemented by pronounced citrus flavors and a slight chalky texture, offering a dry, mineral finish. The wine is praised for its balance, making it a versatile choice for pairing with dishes like seafood, white fish, and even some spicier cuisines
