Tasting Notes

Sourced from the mature, cool climate Drumborg Vineyard in south-west Victoria’s Henty region, our Riesling is part of Seppelt’s iconic Drumborg vineyard range. planted in 1964 by Karl Seppelt, the Drumborg vineyard is renowned for its cool climate, single vineyard wines which are a reflection of the beauty and purity of this isolated site. Our 2024 release marks the 60th anniversary of the establishment of the Drumborg vineyard. Drumborg Riesling is one of Seppelt’s most sought-after white wines due to its purity, intensity of flavour and remarkable cellaring potential. traditional winemaking techniques preserve the truest expression of the vineyard and the 2024 displays incredible intensity of aroma and flavour with a hint of the exotic alongside classic citrus and bath salts notes.
 

Critic Scores

2024 is officially the 60th anniversary of the planting of Drumborg vineyard. A truly wonderful milestone! A terrific wine, too, opening with focused aromas of lemon sherbet, pink grapefruit, makrut lime and orange blossom. The palate is just as focused and pure fruited, with the wine's 3.6g/L residual sugar perfectly balanced by its mouth-watering acidity. Have this with food now, but make sure you still have a bottle or two a decade, or longer, from now.

What a fitting, beautifully aromatic wine to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the planting of the Drumborg vineyard! The decision to plant Riesling in the ultra-cool Drumborg district all those decades ago was truly ahead of its time and has been rewarded year after year with a wine that celebrates the heady, floral aromatics of the variety, while also rewarding substantial cellaring. Spring flowers, so engaging, with the lifted scent of wildflowers, citrus blossom, apple, lemon, lime and grapefruit zest beckons from the glass. Against a strong core of lime, lemon and Delicious apple and with just a hint of Asian fruits, the wine lights up in bright, zingy acidity . . . just like sucking on a Mayer lemon with great balance throughout. A fine Riesling by any measure. Drink 2024-2034.

This cool and edgy site in Voctoria's far south-west has long been considered one of the great locations for Australian Riesling, and this wine, born from a harvest 60 years after the vineyard was planted, further enhances that reputation. There's an intensity and drive to the wine, and explosion of fresh limes and their blossom, a fragrant spiciness and beautifully crisp, liner acidity.

This is the 60th anniversary of the planting of this famous site which seems to be just north of the south pole. It’s a cool climate site, okay. The aroma is immediately up and about with a lemon zest, lime and tart pear combination so compelling and engaging. It’s typically racy with a high tensile mouth feel from that natural acidity and edgy minerality which is part of the vineyard influence. A small amount of lees influence has added a nice textural feel to set off the keen acidity.
