"There were eight wines in the final flight, and the top three were split by just a single point. Acknowledgements are well deserved for Jim Barry Wines with its Spring Farm Block 114 Riesling 2016 and the iconic Frankland Estate Isolation Ridge Riesling 2025. The best of the bracket was Best’s Wines Foudre Ferment Riesling 2025; this is the second time the wine has won this award." – Katrina Butler
