Tasmania is an extraordinary place for Riesling with its potential to produce some of the nation’s finest. Freycinet Rieslings have a fine pedigree stretching back 25 years to 1998 when the first 100% varietal riesling was produced, gaining high praise and considerable recognition along the way.

We are particularly passionate and excited about riesling at Freycinet. Our philosophy is to showcase the purity of riesling aroma and flavour in the wine. This begins with growing moderate yields of fully ripe healthy fruit in the vineyard. Vines are all hand pruned and hand harvested. In the winery a very careful, protective approach is utilised to ensure the delicate yet intense aromas and flavours are retained. Key to this is a slow fermentation at cool temperatures

The vibrant yet elegant palate offers a hedonistic melange of juicy limes, green apples, grapefruit and white nectarine complemented with gentle spice and a refreshingly crisp mineral finish.

Half the pleasure of Riesling is its delicate floral aroma, like fresh blossoms in spring,
which the 2025 Freycinet Riesling shows beautifully. The palate is vibrant and
elegant, bursting with juicy lime, crisp green apple, zesty grapefruit and ripe white
nectarine, finished with a touch of spice and a refreshing mineral snap. Perfect with
seafood, especially oysters.
