The Riesling is drawn from both the Eden Valley and Adelaide Hills regions. All fruit was hand-picked then whole-bunch pressed with only the free run taken. A cool was followed by just over a month on lees to help increase the mouthfeel.

“While it was never in doubt that winemaking talent runs in the Melton family – Sophie is Charlie and Virginia’s daughter – white wine in the Melton portfolio might have been. Not sure Charlie saw that coming, but seeing the results, he must be delighted (and more than a little proud). This is very pale lemon/lime hue. Beautifully aromatic, this offers aromas of spices, lemon sherbet, florals, citrus, grapefruit and has a finely crafted chalky backing. The limes linger and emerge on the palate. Vibrant acidity, a long and lingering finish and knife-edge balance. Eight to 10 years at the very least. Drink now–2034” 94 points, The Vintage Journal 2026
