2023 Yarrawood Tall Tales Autumn Harvest Riesling 750ml

The 2023 Yarrawood Tall Tales Autumn Harvest Riesling is a beautifully crafted, late-season expression from the cool slopes of Victoria’s Yarra Valley. Yarrawood is known for producing wines of freshness, purity and varietal clarity, and the Tall Tales series highlights unique parcels with heightened aromatic intensity and refined texture. The Autumn Harvest Riesling is made from fruit picked later in the season, allowing the grapes to achieve greater flavour concentration while retaining the bright acidity that defines Yarra Valley Riesling. The 2023 vintage was excellent for aromatic whites, delivering a long, mild ripening period with cool evenings and exceptional fruit balance. These ideal conditions enhanced the Riesling’s natural fragrance and allowed the delicate sugars and acids to evolve harmoniously. The wine opens with lifted aromas of lime blossom, citrus zest, green apple, white peach and honeysuckle. Subtle notes of mandarin peel, jasmine and wet stone add complexity and freshness. On the palate, it is vibrant and gently off-dry, offering a beautifully balanced interplay between sweetness and crisp acidity. Flavours of lime cordial, ripe orchard fruit, apricot and mineral spice glide across a silky texture, finishing clean, refreshing and delicately perfumed. The 2023 Autumn Harvest Riesling is approachable, expressive and finely poised — a charming style that suits both immediate enjoyment and short-term cellaring. Its combination of fragrance, purity and gentle sweetness makes it an excellent match for lightly spiced dishes, seafood, soft cheeses or leisurely afternoon sipping.
