Lovely mild vintage for the Barossa allowing for flavours to slowly build with excellent acid retention to aid in the wines freshness and styling has produced silver green streaked fruit of amazing flavours and natural holding acidity sees this 2023 Riesling release continue its stardom qualities to achieve another great cellaring offering.
Whole bunch pressed and free run only. Natural cold settling for 12 days then racked with little solids remaining for wild yeast ferment at low temperature for 6 weeks continuing with lees aging for 8 weeks for added texture. weight and complexity. Again expect high tone aromatics of white stone fruits. grapefruit. white flowers & lime. The real star is the palate which reveals all of the aromatics but sears with powered fruit. spice. pith. texture. weight & persistence that finishes crisp. dry & long.

About The Winery
Torzi Matthews. a food and winemaking partnership between Domenic Torzi and Tracy Matthews have passion and the firm conviction of appreciating the value of heritage tradition in the crafting of their wines and olive produce.
In 1996 we stumbled across a small. frost-pocketed hollow in the beautiful Mt McKenzie. Eden Valley and fell in love with the area for its remoteness and its diverse thin soils. The rationale was quite simple: this land would produce low yields of fruit which in turn would translate into flavoursome European style wines.
Our wines are crafted via non-interventional Italian / European techniques that employs careful hand harvesting. whole bunch natural ferments. basket pressed and the use of fine grained French oak barrels.
