Helm Premium Riesling 2025 750ml

Pure, Precise, and Iconically Canberra - A Benchmark Australian Riesling of Clarity and Class Helm Premium Riesling 2025 is a pristine and finely structured white wine that embodies the best of the Canberra District’s cool-climate terroir. Crafted by Ken Helm AM, one of Australia’s true Riesling masters, this wine displays purity of fruit, crystalline acidity, and a long, mineral finish, a Riesling that speaks of heritage, precision, and regional excellence. Tasting Notes Aroma: Lime zest, green apple, and white blossom with hints of slate and jasmine. Palate: Intensely focused and vibrant, showing citrus, green apple, and delicate floral notes balanced by razor-sharp acidity. Finish: Long, dry, and mineral with a lingering citrus purity and textural finesse. The Wine Front - 96 Points  This is wow factor stuff. Potent and inwardly concentrated, lemon-lime essence, green apple, a lick of ginger tea, some faint honeyed notes, though the wine feels decidedly dry. Bold flavours, so much character, a faint wild honey note providing apparent sweetness but also that wild honey bitterness. It sizzles with its energy, mops the palate clean after each sip and yet lingers with sweet spice and preserved lemon characters. Striking wine. Sensational. Mike Bennie Food Pairing / Serving Suggestions Perfect with fresh oysters, sushi, Thai salads, or goat’s cheese. Also superb with light seafood dishes or spicy Asian cuisine, where its crisp acidity provides perfect balance. Serve chilled for ultimate refreshment and precision.
