"...It's hard to imagine a white wine could capture South Australian terrior as boldly as this, and carry it off with such lithe grace..."
-Wines & Spirits
Light pale green with brilliant hues. The bouquet shows excellent citrus and green apple characters typical of cool climate Eden Valley fruit. Complemented by a lifted floral rose petal aroma, the varietal Riesling is defined superbly. Medium-bodied with intense yet delicate fine Riesling fruit flavours. Abundant citrus and green apple characters with a soft, clean and crisp finish. This wine is enjoyable drinking now but will gain complex honeyed, toasty characters that exemplify fine aged Rieslings when cellared for many years.
