This case of six Fairview Darling Riesling 2024 offers a bright, semi-dry white with lifted floral aromas, citrus freshness, and gentle sweetness. Lively and well balanced, it’s made for flavourful food and easy enjoyment.
Perfect with Thai and Cape Malay dishes, especially anything with chilli. Also excellent with Fairview goat’s-milk Camembert.
The wine appears pale green-yellow in the glass. Sweet floral notes lead on the nose, followed by lemon and apricot. The palate opens semi-dry, showing lime and stone-fruit flavours. Fresh, citrussy acidity balances the natural residual sugar. Enjoy it young for vibrancy or allow it to develop for 3–5 years or longer.
This case includes six bottles of Fairview Darling Riesling 2024, sourced from unirrigated vineyards planted in 2003 outside Darling. The vines grow on dark red Oakleaf soils at around 300 metres above sea level. A cool West Coast climate shapes the wine’s bright aromatics and naturally fresh acidity.
The team harvested the grapes early in the morning at 22.5° Balling and whole-bunch pressed them. After two days of settling, the juice fermented slowly in stainless-steel tanks at low temperatures. The cellar team stopped fermentation early to retain natural sweetness. The result is an aromatic, refreshing Riesling with gentle sweetness, crisp balance, and excellent food-pairing appeal.
