This wine is pristine with aromas and flavours of lemon myrtle and tea tree blossom. With crushed quartz minerality, it is evocative, seamless and ageless. The wine shows great tautness and line as a young wine that will delight early drinkers as well as those who want to cellar it for 10+ years. Enjoy with Kingfish sashimi and chilli lime dressing, or vegetable spring rolls with Vietnamese herbs.
Eden Valley experienced below average rainfall during winter and the growing season. This, combined with a windy spring, led to below average crops. Warm summer days developed intense flavours, and cool nights maintained natural acidity in the grapes, both perfect for making classic Pewsey Vale Riesling.
95 Point Rated - Jane Faulkner James Halliday Wine Companion
"It has all the hallmarks of a great riesling. Balance of citrus, spices and a mineral sensation to the acidity. It has light raw silk texture and depth, yet is never showy. It's all class."
92 Point Rated - Huon Hooke The Real Review
"Very light straw-yellow hue, with a mineral nose with a floral note that reminds of boronia, the palate lean and very dry, savoury and long. Drying, slightly powdery-textured aftertaste. A delicate, classic dry style riesling."
