From Porongurup in the Great Southern wine region south of Margaret River in Western Australia, this is a tight cool climate riesling from Castle Rock Estate. It opens to aromas that remind of stone and steel. The palate is dry, light to medium bodied, the acidity high and the alcohol a modest 11.0. Lemon and lime expressions of riesling are neatly tucked in. Drink this $21 riesling now and over 5 to 8 years. Rating: Good (★★★, 88 points). Website: Castle Rock Estate. Source: Sample. Tasted: April 2023.
