Wine Front reviews are in...
Sauvignon Blanc 2024
95 points. Fantastic wine. It’s a bloom of complex flavour. Salted gooseberries, smoked apples, earth, clay, dry spice and hay, with dry grass and herb notes spreading through the aftertaste. No hesitation, this is a ripper. Campbell Mattinson, winefront.com.au.
Riesling 2024
93+ points. As far as I know this doesn’t see oak but it still feels noticeably textural. It’s cut with citrussy flavours but the main characters here are steel and tonic. It’s dry, almost gravelly, almost stony, with a herbs-dipped-in-woodsmoke-and-brine side. This too would be fabulous to dine with. Campbell Mattinson, winefront.com.au.
1314 Rosé 2024
93 points. Made using estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Riesling and Merlot. Dust and leaf notes ripple through blackcurrant bud, citrus, jubey raspberry and sweet spice. It’s a dry rosé with lots of spice and leaf notes but with a good core of juicy fruit too. Colour-wise it sits just on the pale or orange side of crimson; it’s a fair indicator of the dry-but-flavoursome-style of the wine. There’s a meaty/bunchy/Campari-esque side to this; it’s not dominant but it’s there. This would be great with food. Campbell Mattinson, winefront.com.au.
