      MONTALTO RIESLING - A RARE COOL-CLIMATE GEM FROM THE MORNINGTON PENINSULA

      Riesling may be uncommon on the Mornington Peninsula, but at Montalto it has thrived since 1990 on just 1.2 acres of vines at our Red Hill South vineyard. This limited planting delivers Rieslings that are intensely perfumed, textural and refreshing, shaped by the Peninsula’s cool, maritime climate and meticulous winemaking. The result is a wine of purity, delicacy and aromatic drive - a rare Peninsula expression of this noble variety.

       

      TASTE & STYLE

      Montalto Riesling is renowned for its aromatic lift and precision:

       

      ·        Aromatics - white florals, jasmine, apple blossom and talc.

      ·        Fruit spectrum - nectarine, lemon, lime, mandarin peel.

      ·        Mineral & texture - oyster shell, sherbet, fruit-tingle freshness.

      ·        Structure - crisp acid line that balances delicacy with fruit concentration.

       

      The style is dry, vibrant and age-worthy, offering both immediate refreshment and long-term cellaring potential.

       

      MONTALTO RIESLING

       

      Montalto Riesling 2024
      Intensely perfumed, with layers of white florals, talc, nectarine and citrus peel. The palate showcases varietal purity of lemon and lime, sherbet and oyster shell minerality. Supported by an integrated acid line, this Riesling balances freshness and delicacy with concentration, making it equally suited to summer drinking or extended cellaring.

       

      AWARDS & RECOGNITION

      As one of the few Rieslings produced on the Mornington Peninsula, Montalto Riesling is frequently praised for its clarity, intensity and individuality. The limited vineyard site and consistent winemaking style ensure it stands apart in Victoria’s cool-climate landscape.

       

      FOOD PAIRING & SERVING

      Montalto Riesling is an exceptionally food-friendly wine. Pair with:

       

      ·        Fresh oysters, prawns and shellfish.

      ·        Spicy Asian cuisine - Thai salads, Vietnamese spring rolls, mild curries.

      ·        Grilled white fish, calamari or chicken with citrus.

       

      Serve well-chilled at 7-9°C to highlight its purity and aromatic freshness.

      Is Montalto Riesling dry or sweet?
      Montalto Riesling 2024 is a dry style, showing freshness, crisp acidity and fruit purity.

       

      Can Montalto Riesling age?
      Yes. While delicious when young, its vibrant acidity and concentrated fruit mean it can be cellared for 5 - 10 years, developing richer honeyed and toasty notes.

       

      What food pairs best with Riesling?
      Seafood, Asian-inspired dishes and fresh summer produce pair beautifully with Riesling’s balance of acidity and aromatic lift.

       

      Why is Riesling rare on the Mornington Peninsula?
      The Peninsula is best known for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, but small Riesling plantings - like Montalto’s Red Hill South vines - thrive in the cool, maritime climate, producing unique expressions.
