Description / Reviews
"2023 produced a small crop of fantastic quality with green fruited aromas and a complex, multi-layered palate reminiscent of the famous 2017 vintage." - Winemaker Notes
"The 2023 Magpie Hill Reserve Riesling is so, so pretty on the nose, almost achingly so. It offers notes of lime blossom, crushed rocks, jasmine flower, tamarind, saffron, a hint of mustard seed, white pepper, juniper berry, apple cider apples (actually, more specifically, there is an aroma in here reminiscent of the "tang!" in scrumpy cider) and curry leaf—I could go on. In the mouth, the wine is concentrated and intense. The acid would almost hurt were it not for the slew of juicy, saliva-inducing salty characters in there. It is detailed, nuanced and exciting." - 96 Points, Erin Larkin, Robert Parker Wine Advocate
"Intense lemon-verbena, freshly rolled pastry and nettle aromas, the palate light-bodied and very tangy with prominent acidity, the fruit intense and crisp, delicate and refined, with a very long finale." - 95 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review
