Carrick Josephine Bannockburn Riesling 2021 $34 
The name Josephine refers to the decorative variation of the ‘Carrick Bend’ nautical knot which appears on the front of the label. The knot is a metaphor for how the winery brings together viticulture, winemaking and their place. It also includes local landmarks like the Carrick mountain range, the Carrick Riding and the Carrick goldfields. If you love riesling roaring with ripe apple and luscious lime and heaving with honeysuckle then strap yourself in because this new release by winemaker Rosie Menzies hits the high notes in seconds flat. Beautifully balanced and unashamedly citrus-centric, it’s an energy injection for even the most jaded tastebuds. Chill it down to accentuate the citrus characters, elongate the flavours, and enjoy its marathon-like finish.
