Fallen Giants Serra Range Riesling 2025 from the Grampians is a bright, cool–climate riesling that crackles with citrus and mineral drive, perfect for lovers of thirst–quenching, no–nonsense whites. Fruit comes off the organically farmed Halls Gap vineyard on granite and ironstone soils along the Serra Range, giving piercing freshness and a clear, stony line.

Aromatically it’s all green apple, kaffir lime, lemon and citrus blossom, with hints of grapefruit pith and wet stone. The palate is dry, tight and zesty, built around lime and grapefruit flavours with crunchy green apple, brisk acidity and a long, mouth–watering, chalky–mineral finish that screams cool–climate riesling. It’s energetic and pure, drinking beautifully young but with enough acidity and extract to develop more complexity over the next 5–8 years.

On the table, reach for oysters, prawns, salt–and–pepper squid or fish and chips, where that limey crunch cuts straight through the salt and batter. It also works brilliantly with Thai or Vietnamese salads, fresh goat’s cheese or a simple plate of cured trout, making Fallen Giants Serra Range Riesling 2025 a cracking option for warm–weather drinking and seafood–heavy spreads.
