Pewsey Vale Eden Valley Riesling 2023 (Australia)

Description

• Dry style
• Grapefruit
• Fresh rosemary
• Soft acidity

Pale straw with green hues. Intense aromas of fine dried herbs, white flowers, lemons, lime and a hint of pineapple. A long, rich palate reminiscent of grapefruit, lime and fresh rosemary. The wine finishes with soft natural acidity that balances the flavour and minerality that is delicious now or will reward medium to long term cellaring.

Above average winter and spring rains filled the soils and dams. This cool, wet weather delayed vine growth and budhurst by three weeks. The mild conditions continued combined with wet, windy weather just as the vines followed, giving a lower set than usual. The vines ripended their smaller crop in perfect, mild conditions. The resulting  grapes were full of flavour with beautiful natural acidity.

Riesling is our single focus. Naturally our undivided attention goes into making a Riesling that's simply delicious. Every bottle captures the Purity of our single site vineyard in Eden Valley where nature is left undistributed to do its thing. It's no wonder we consistently deliver high quality award-winning Riesling. Pewsey Vale was the first Riesling vineyard planted in Eden Valley more than 175 years ago. Consistent in flavour and quality from vintage. Flavourful and refreshing with an approachable, soft natural acidity iconic to Eden Valley.
