2025 Frisk "Prickly" Riesling Southeastern Australia
Notes
Frisk “Prickly” Riesling is a playful, lightly spritzy white wine, crafted primarily from Riesling with small amounts of Muscat and Gewürztraminer. Fermented in stainless steel and bottled with a gentle natural fizz, the wine bursts with aromas of lime sorbet, nectarine, white flowers, and a hint of gingery spice. A touch of residual sweetness balances the variety’s naturally high acidity, giving the wine an energetic, mouthwatering character without feeling heavy. At just 10% alcohol, this Riesling has about 40 g/L of residual sugar, placing the wine in an off-dry to medium-sweet style, similar to a Kabinett style. Despite the sweetness, the brisk acidity and slight effervescence keep the remarkably refreshing. Frisk Prickly Riesling is especially well suited to spicy Asian cuisine, seafood, and summer sipping, offering an irresistibly bright and easygoing expression of Australian Riesling that has become something of a cult favorite among lovers of aromatic whites.
