Forest Hill produced Great Southern's first Riesling, and still to this day it's one of the region's best.
Grape Varietals & Region: Riesling sourced mainly from Block 2 of the Forest Hill estate in Mount Barker in the Great Southern of Western Australia.
Taste Profile: Bright pale straw with green hues. Lifted aromas of blossom, citrus and subtle yellow fruits. The palate is energetic and textured with citrus juice flavours
Winemaking Process: It's mostly whole-bunch pressed, with a small amount of lees contact for added complexity.
A lot of the wines in this category comes generally come from higher altitude or cooler climate regions, and often have bright acidity, balanced with fruitiness that cam come with or without some level of sweetness.
They general have perfumed floral, honeyed & spice notes. For fuller bodied styles, they often have an oiliness to them
