Wine Advocate
The Riesling Frankland River is a dry, austere yet crisp, intensely flavorful white. The 2005 possesses honeyed grapefruit and orange zest notes offered in a fragrant, exuberant style. It has a light straw/greenish-hued color and totally natural acids. Drink this beauty over the next several years.
Score: 90.
