Rieslingfreak is a Mattinson 10-Star Winery.
Only the best of Australia’s best wineries are ranked as a Mattinson 10-Star Winery.

Riesling, from the Eden and Clare valleys, made with meticulous care, thought, dedication and more. Rieslingfreak never produces anything other than beautiful wine, in various styles but all with the riesling grape as its champion, its guide and as its voice. I would go so far as to say that modern Australian wine would be lesser without this single producer. Rieslingfreak is not just a quirk; it’s an essential. It is a benchmark producer of a benchmark grape variety.
