Kilikanoon Petaluma Riesling Wines
We’re big fans of Riesling here at winedirect.com.au, and our customers are, too. It’s one of the world’s most-grown varietals, producing wines that range from dry to very sweet, as well as sparkling wines. Some winemakers even blend it with red wine, with delicious results.

- Petaluma Cane Cut Riesling 375mL 2018Special Price $28.00 Regular Price $30.00This is just the 3rd release of a cane cut Riesling from Petaluma. Its source, the Hanlin Hill Vineyard, was planted in 1968, at 550m above sea level and produces full-flavoured, slaty Rieslings of the highest quality. ‘Canecut’ refers to the process of partially or completely cutting the fruiting canes from the vine and allowing the fruit to air dry for a period of time. This concentrates flavours, sugar and acidity. The resulting fruit was then handpicked and whole bunch pressed before fermentation. Ferment was stopped with 155g/l sugar remaining in the wine. Flavours of lemon, lime and sherbet are balanced by acidity and a slaty edge. Great with Asian dishes, especially where chilli and seafood are involved. Learn More
