Pressing Matters R0 Riesling 2022

Product Description:
Bracingly dry, beautifully Tasmanian—Riesling for the purist.

Pressing Matters R0 Riesling 2022 is the driest in the lineup from this acclaimed Tasmanian producer—an acid-driven, zero-residual-sugar wine that delivers sharp focus and serious length. Inspired by the Rieslings of the Mosel but firmly grounded in the terroir of Coal River Valley, this is a wine that thrives on purity, structure and saline detail.

Despite its searing dryness, the R0 is anything but austere. Aromatics of preserved lime, dried wildflowers and crisp pear give way to a palate laced with grapefruit, fennel, lemongrass and flint. There's tension, minerality and drive—yet it never feels punishing, just finely tuned. With low alcohol and laser-like precision, it's a masterclass in cool-climate winemaking.

Pair it with oysters, sashimi or chargrilled prawns. Built to refresh now or evolve gracefully over the next 6–8 years.
