Coal River, Tasmania
This wine teeters on the brink between ‘dry’ and ‘off dry’, but simply put it’s just superbly balanced in terms of acid and fruit.

Description
The grapes are sourced from all 3 blocks of Samantha’s own vineyards in the Tea Tree sub region of Coal River, planted in 2004, 2017 and 2021 respectively and from another grower in Campania sub region, planted in 2001, Soil type as described by Samantha is predominantly dark clay on Jurassic dolerite in her estate vineyard.
Hand picked, destemmed and left on skins for 8 hours before being pressed off to tank for fermentation. 100% wild ferment. Samantha stops the tank ferment when she feels the sugar to acid balance is right (approx 11 weeks) and then leaves on lees for one further month, stirring fortnightly.
A Riesling with natural acid (2.99 PH) and with 6.7g grams residual it’s an absolute pleasure of a wine that showcases the potential of the Coal River for this variety and how the texture is so very different when you don’t need to acidify this variety.
