Cherubino Black Label
2025 Cherubino Black Label Porongurup Riesling
2025 Cherubino Black Label Porongurup Riesling
This wine is a finely etched expression of this cool, granitic subregion. The nose is immediately lifted and precise, showing aromas of lime zest, lemon blossom, crushed quartz, and subtle hints of white peach.
There’s a delicate herbal edge -lemongrass and kaffir lime - that adds dimension and freshness. On the palate, the wine is taut and crystalline, driven by a spine of vivid natural acidity. Pure citrus flavours - lime, finger lime, and grapefruit pith - are layered with saline minerality and a whisper of talc.
The texture is both delicate and intense, with an almost chalky finesse that speaks clearly of Porongurup’s rocky soils. The finish is long, mouth-watering, and superbly balanced, promising great cellaring potential while offering immediate appeal in its youth.
