PROTERO Riesling 2025 (New Release)

PROTERO Riesling 2025 (New Release)

The Return of a Cult Favourite

After years of anticipation, the Protero Riesling is back. The 2025 vintage delivered exactly what we'd been waiting for—fruit from Block 3, the coldest, highest part of our Kenton Valley vineyard, perfectly suited to this Austrian-Germanic expression of Riesling.

This is not your typical Australian Riesling. Dry, textural, and confidently aromatic, it trades the usual bright citrus for something more nuanced: apple and spice dancing through a field of native flowers.

"I like Riesling and think our part of the Adelaide Hills with its altitude, cool air and granite soils ideal for growing the variety. We took a chance, pulling out young Chardonnay and planting Riesling, but I think we'll be proved correct—Riesling is at home in the Adelaide Hills." — Stephen Pannell

Tasting Note

Flavour

Varietal | Energetic | Confident. Pomme fruits on entry followed by brown lime and baking spice. Talc and dusty roads pepper the fruit on the back palate.

Texture

Silky and aromatic, this is not your standard Australian Riesling. The tone is expansive rather than fine and linear spreading then tapering on the finishto a long fine point.

Goes With

Nettle & pink peppercorn risotto from tipo 00 The pasta cookbook by Andreas Papadakis (you may need more than one bottle!)

Cellaring

Approachable and appealing now with a future in the cellar if you can, try five years for extra complexity.
