Enticingly aromatic but very tart, with enamel-peeling acidity set against citrus and quince flavors. Needs time in the cellar to gain some flesh, but should develop for eons. Best after 2016. 1,200 cases made.??–HS??Region: Australia / Western Australia / Frankland River Select to Add

The 2011 Isolation Ridge Riesling gives intense notes of lime juice, wet stones and jasmine with hints of pineapple and yuzu zest. Crisp, light-bodied, dry and with a wonderful concentration of citrus and mineral flavors, it finishes long. Still very tight and youthful, consider drinking this one from 2014 to 2022+.

The 2010 Isolation Ridge Vineyard Riesling comes from this single vineyard planted in 1988, certified organic. It presents a more savory / earthy nose than the other Rieslings with notes of baking bread, crushed stones and lightly toasted almonds over gentle peach blossom, green apple and fresh pear notes. The dry, light bodied palate lends very crisp acid and nervy citrus fruit concentration, finishing long and minerally. Still very tight, give it another year or two in bottle and drink it to 2021+.
