Mondillo Riesling 2021 – Bob Campbell 93/100
An off-dry Riesling with lime-citrus, saline, wet slate and wild flower flavours plus a hint of stonefruit supported by delicious mouth-watering acidity, which perfectly balances a touch of sweetness building some nice tension in the wine.
Mondillo Riesling 2021 – Michael Cooper 4.5 Stars
A single-vineyard wine, grown at Bendigo, the youthful 2021 vintage (4.5 Stars) has the words 'Dry Riesling' on the back label. Light lemon/green, it is a scented, medium to full-bodied wine, with good intensity of citrusy, slightly appley flavours, some peachy notes, balanced acidity and a dryish finish. Approachable now, it's well worth cellaring.
