Riesling 2021 – Black Market Deal #39827
- Light, aromatic
- King Valley
Kinda cool when one of your ole’ reliables goes above and beyond and produces a wine that borders on exceptional. Everything this crew produces is nice and tasty, yet this takes things a bit further with amazing complexity. It’s zippy, chalky, citrusy, herbal and minerally. Everything you’d want from high-end riesling, but neatly packed into something oozing with value. Too good to be true? Find out for yourself.

What is a Black Market deal?
Black Market deals are only made possible if we don’t reveal the maker’s brand on site. The wines are the genuine article – absolutely no cleanskins or fake brands, just dangerously good value. You won’t find out what it is until it hits your doorstep, but you won’t regret it. Just keep it on the down low.
It’s cool, we get it, you want to know absolutely everything about this wine. Well here you go, go nuts.

Region
King Valley
The region of King Valley is as impressive as its name. With a magnificent vineyard area covering 1,800ha, it represents half of all the plantings in North East Victoria. Celebrated for its innovative varietals, covering all corners of the globe - from Spain, to Germany, France, Russia and more famously Italy, it's this point of difference that has made the area such a revered Aussie wine region. Gentle slopes, warm days and cool nights make it an ideal area to produce Mediterranean varieties such as Nebbiolo, Sangiovese and Prosecco amongst many other out-of-the-box wines - talk about La Dolce Vita!
