Majella Coonawarra Riesling 2024 is a refreshing, well-balanced estate Riesling sourced from Majella’s Silica block vineyard — established in 1994 and bottled as a Riesling since 1998. Light straw gold; a decadent fusion of tropical lime, crisp apple, and subtle spice on the nose; gently pressed with very limited skin contact to preserve fruit aromas and flavours, fermented in stainless steel, and bottled young to retain crisp freshness. Firm acidity and genuine Coonawarra Riesling character from an exceptional 2024 vintage.
