2025 Fiori (Riesling/Pinot Gris/Gewurztraminer/Pinot Blanc)

A$32.00

A$32.00

Our “Forest” label of wines celebrates gorgeous blends from Canberra and surrounding regions. This is an exciting aromatic field blend of Riesling (30%), Pinot Gris (30%) from Lake George, Gewurztraminer (30%) off the Excelsior Ridge vineyard, plus a dollop of Pinot Blanc (10%) from our own vineyard in Braidwood.

“Fiori” translates to flowers - very thoughtfully named given the delicate floral aroma that leaps from the glass. White flowers intertwine with orchard fruits, zesty lime and a hint of ginger and roses. Perfect to pair with south-east Asian inspired dishes.

Vintage: 2025

Region: Canberra District

Vineyards: Lake George, Four Winds (Murrumbateman) Excelsior Peak ( Tumbarumba) Charleys Forest (Braidwood)

Variety: Field blend of Riesling (30%), Pinot Gris (30%), Gewürztraminer (30%), Pinot Blanc (10%)

What The Reviewers Are Saying

Winelines (Gilbert Labour) Silver

“The initial aromas of rosewater, from the Gewürztraminer component of this interesting blend, lead to a grippy and tight mid-palate channeling attractive undertones of pineapple, nectarine and jasmine blossoms.

The aromas and flavours continue to swirl and entice on breathing.

This is a delightful, refreshing and vibrant young wine from the Sapling Yard team, well-suited to summer salads & fresh seafood platters.”

Wine Companion (Jane Faulkner) Silver

“The Sapling Yard wine's label (which I love – looks like a lino cut) mentions that the varieties – riesling, pinot gris, gewürztraminer and pinot blanc – are fermented separately with the gris having some skin contact, which explains the straw-copper colour. This has distinct spicy gewürz aromas and flavours of musk, roses and lychee, but they're by no means dominating, as there’s a citrusy tang, too. Refreshing, textural, with a touch of sweetness rounding out the palate, yet everything tempered by fine acidity.”
