- TASTING NOTE: "From the 1994-planted Springviews vineyard. Beautiful Riesling, gentle and succulent, textural and nearing on medium weight, but not quite. Scents of apple, pineapple and jasmine with flavors of apple and pineapple accompanied by some faint green almond and arrowroot biscuit elements. Acidity is briny and intense, very minerally and refreshing. Complex, compelling expression that delivers something a little different, and very good." 94 Points - Mike Bennie, Halliday

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: In '17 winemaker Guy Lyons (Forest Hill) and his wife Nicola bought the Springviews vineyard on the south side of the dramatically beautiful Porongurup range in Great Southern and created their brand, Lowboi. Planted in '85, the vineyard orientation is east-west and was established as a dry-grown site, although irrigation was added in '20 due to constant water pressure in the area. The soils are layered laterite gravels with loam and weathered granite. Planted on the south-facing slope is riesling and Gingin clone chardonnay. Their grüner veltliner comes from the Lyons family farm in Mount Barker. The ‘Lowboi’ name originates from the farm Guy's mother grew up on in the Great Southern shire of Tambellup. Halliday
