LS Merchants Riesling 2024
LS Merchants Riesling 2024
Dylan@LS Merchants: A Riesling from Matt Swinney’s vineyard in Frankland River.
As a team our love for off-dry Riesling is ever growing. This is due to our in-house German wine connoisseur – Fabian, who generously shares his extensive fine wine knowledge, and many bottles of rizza over dinner.
Tasting Notes
Orange blossom, lemon and lime rind, Bath salts and a lifted perfume-concentrated fruit with subtle mouth-watering acidity. Perfect with spicy foods, cheese and something sweet.
Plaudits
A glass of this rizza, a sunny afternoon and some good food, all shared with best friends, would be the perfect day. This is full of florals, spice and lemony goodness – all juice and zest. The palate is beautifully composed – textural, light, lively with acidity – and the finish lingers long.
95 Points James Halliday.

About Winery
About Winery
Dylan Arvidson has quickly established a loyal following with LS Merchants. Something like a cult. Creative, young, new-world, informal, approachable, fun. It’s the stuff the cool kids drink but to call it hipster would be seriously under appreciating how good this wine is.
Rock up to LS Merchants and be charmed by the affable Bella (who knows a heck of a lot more about wine than she lets on) or the hilarious Declan, part raconteur, part madman, always entertaining. Later on, Dylan might even be spinning the decks on lawn outside.
James Halliday.
LS Merchants is focused on making wine from many different regions in Western Australia (Margaret River, their base, the Great Southern and Geographe). While Dylan Arvidson, head winemaker and owner, adheres to a minimalist winemaking approach he does not identify as a ‘natural winemaker’, rather allowing wild fermentation to occur where possible and pushing wine grapes and styles in many different directions. There is plenty of variety in the LS Merchants portfolio, but the wines are bound together by his clean, bright and expressive winemaking style.
