Product Description:
Textural, bright and finely judged. Stargazer Riesling is shaped by Tasmania’s Coal River Valley and the steady hand of winemaker Samantha Connew. Sourced from vineyards in Tea Tree and Campania, it brings clarity and drive, with just enough residual sugar to balance its natural acidity.
The fruit is hand-picked, destemmed and left on skins for eight hours before a wild ferment in tank. Fermentation is stopped at the precise moment where fruit weight, sugar and acid fall into line. This is a Riesling of energy and subtle structure, showing the poise and detail that define Stargazer’s work with southern Tasmanian fruit.
