ESTATE RIESLING 2024
VARIETY: 100% Riesling REGION: Mount Barker, WA
SEASON NOTES
2024 was the earliest season on record for the Great Southern, eclipsing 2014, 2018 and 2020 (our most recent warm years) in terms of average start and finish times. Winter 2023 was cool and wet, providing good subsoil moisture, however Spring conversely was warm, dry and stable, flowering was compact in its timing for most varieties. Fruit set from flowering provided below long-term average yields, and the ongoing dry conditions ensured an accelerated
but uniform ripening season. Some heat spikes from late-January through to mid-February ensured winemakers and viticulturists were on their toes with
the key to success being regular tasting and inspecting blocks and being nimble to harvest fruit at a whim. The resulting wines thus far seem to have lovely fruit expression, fuller palate profiles yet still balanced acidity, length and complexity that our wines are known for.
WINEMAKING
Due to the conditions of the 2024 vintage,
we’ve had to adjust our fruit sources
out of necessity. Our selection remains
predominantly from Mount Barker, now
enhanced by the inclusion of cooler sites in
Porongurup and Denmark. These additions
bring a refreshing balance of acidity and f loral notes.
TASTING NOTE
The warmer vintage influenced the style of
Castelli Estate Riesling, resulting in a riper
profile compared to previous years. However,
the addition of fruit from Porongurup
and Denmark has balanced the palate,
maintaining the hallmark acidity of previous
Mount Barker dominant vintages.
