  "On completion of my first sip, I leant back, crossed my arms, tilted my head, and let out a wry smile—soft and relaxed, like a resting hammock. As always, this wine kills. Leaning further toward savoury characters than the ’23 vintage, I enjoyed the punchy floral prettiness and overall intensity. A bouquet of white peach, tangerine peel, green mango and lime. One of the many parcels sees oak (5% of the total makeup), and the wine spends eight months on lees before bottling—building a slatey texture and complementing the tight framed, puckering acid. Pith, chalk, pressed lavender and mandarin—it’s a fruit salad breakfast in the Mentawai Islands. This is one of Australia’s best-value wines, and once again, Frankland Estate is pushing boundaries in the vineyard and the industry—redefining what Australian Riesling can look like—and they’re doing it from WA. This wine doesn’t need food, but an autumn nectarine salad and poached chicken would pair nicely."

  "The nose is complex, mineral and elegant with aromas of lemon rind, candied lime zest, apple blossom, slate, grapefruit and Asian pear. The palate is tightly wound with a real generosity giving a medium-bodied mouthfeel underneath the racy acidity and long lasting notes of green apple, mandarin zest, sea salt and nectarine. Nicely crafted with a years ahead in bottle. Excellent. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

About This Wine

This wine is among one of Australia's Best Value Wines.

Isolation Ridge is the name of the vineyard that surrounds the winery.

Every bottle of wine that bears the Frankland Estate name is organically grown on the Isolation Ridge vineyard. Everything – the vines, the fruit and the wine – is tended and handled with the same degree of care and thoughtfulness.

The winemaking is perhaps best described as light-touch. The team is precise, thoughtful and adaptable, acting always in the interests of faithfully capturing variety, site and vintage. This means highlighting the aromatic and flavour purity of the grapes and leaving the inherent – and never overbearing – structure to shine.

About the Winery

Frankland Estate is a place, a family, its traits and values all bound up as one.

"Frankland Estate is a superb, family-run, ecologically sensitive estate in a beautiful, extremely isolated location." — Jancis Robinson MW

"Frankland Estate has emerged as one of the great vineyards of Australia" — Huon Hooke

The family members reside on the fringe of the vines, living and breathing the pristine air and treading the organic-certified coffee-rock soils of the gentle slope. They grow vibrant, healthy fruit whose juice and skins bear the signature of the land and bring honest, abundant refreshment to those who taste the ensuing wines.
