Alkoomi Family Collection Frankland River Riesling 2024 - 12 Bottles

Product Description

Winery Background
Since its founding in 1971, Alkoomi Wines has been a leading name in the Frankland River subregion of Western Australia’s Great Southern. Family-owned and sustainably managed, the winery is renowned for crafting wines of precision and elegance, with Riesling being its most celebrated varietal. The Family Collection showcases the finest expressions of the estate’s vineyards.

Region & Vintage
Frankland River is internationally recognised for producing some of Australia’s best Riesling, thanks to its gravelly soils, cool nights, and long, even growing season. The 2024 vintage was near-perfect, with mild conditions preserving natural acidity and flavour purity, resulting in Rieslings of outstanding intensity and longevity.

Winemaking
Select parcels of estate-grown fruit were hand-harvested in the early morning to capture freshness. Gentle pressing and cool fermentation in stainless steel ensured pristine aromatics and varietal clarity. A short period on fine lees added texture and complexity while retaining the wine’s crisp line of acidity.

Tasting Notes
Pale straw with green hues. The nose bursts with lifted aromas of lime zest, lemon blossom, and crunchy green apple, alongside subtle mineral and talc notes. The palate is precise and vibrant, showing pure citrus fruits, fine texture, and a long, zesty finish marked by mouth-watering acidity.

Food Pairing
Ideal with freshly shucked oysters, grilled prawns, Thai salads, or goat’s cheese.

Cellaring Potential
Enjoy now for its electric vibrancy or cellar for 10–15 years, where it will evolve into a more complex wine with honeyed and toasty nuances while retaining its hallmark freshness.

Why It Stands Out
The Alkoomi Family Collection Riesling 2024 captures the essence of Frankland River — pure, focused, and elegant. It is both a brilliant young wine and a world-class candidate for long-term aging.
