Description
Pooley was established in 1985 when the family planted 10 rows of Riesling & 7 rows of Pinot Noir on their property at Coal River in Southern Tasmania.
This wine comes off those first planted Riesling vines.
Such an enticing wine from the first sniff; jasmine, grapefruit & white flowers on the nose, while the palate reveals lavender, lime zest, green apple & fennel.
Seductive stuff.
”There’s a little bit of Tassie meets Rheinhessen about this wine, or that could just be me.
Floral, ripe green apple, a little fennel and assorted stony stuff.
It’s ample in flavour, and texture, crushed rock texture, again the lilting mouth-perfume, firm acidity, though it’s not sour or raw.
Finish is long, replete with texture and pretty green apple.
Excellent.” 94 points, The Wine Front The Finer Details Style – White Wine Varietal – Riesling Country – Australia Region – Coal River Valley, Tasmania Vintage – 2020 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 13.9%
