A delicate green/gold colour leads to a fresh aroma of newly picked apples and limes. The palate is elegant with a crisp, dry finish as expected in a high class Riesling from a great vintage- delicious in its youth as a chilled white but it can be aged for a few years if desired during which time it will become richer with notes of toast and honey.
The Portrait Eden Valley Riesling is sourced from vineyards dotted throughout the cool climate, high altitude levels of the Eden Valley. All single vineyard fruit was vinified separately, then blended in line with the traditional Lehmann style - citrus, acid and multiple layers reflecting the individual vineyards.
The fruit was picked early, crushed chilled and the juice immediately separated from the skins to enhance delicacy. Following cold fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine was clarified and bottled.
95 Points James Halliday 2018 Companion
"Indeed a lovely portrait of Eden Valley riesling. Pale bright quartz-green; the bouquet is floral with citrus blossom to the fore, the palate finely etched lime juice, the long finish with perfectly balanced acidity. Bargain, with even more to come over the next 5+ years."
