Moppity Atrius Riesling 2025
AU$45, 12.5% alcohol, screwcap, Murrumbateman/Canberra District.
This is a wine that’s intense with fruit, carries an array of different characters, and has clear, long lines of flavour through the finish. Everything about it points to quality. It tastes of lime, mandarin, citrus leaves, slate and pink marshmallows, the latter adding both aroma and flavour. It’s a little bit exotic, and very good.
