TASTING NOTES
PALATE: 
The wine shows powerful fruit and texture with citrus, lemon and grapefruit together with a textural, minerally and dry finish.

FOOD MATCHING:
Drink with roast chicken or fish with white sauce.

VINIFICATION:
During the 2023 vintage, to counter the high acids I allowed the Riesling a slow but full malo-lactic fermentation on lees in neutral oak & stainless steel with no sulphur until bottling. This is not a traditional technique for Eden Valley Riesling but instead gives a balance and softness to the wine without requiring loads of sugar to offset the acid. It also allows lower use of preservative. Win/Win.

VINTAGE NOTES:
We have been incredibly lucky with Rieslings from Eden Valley over the last 4 vintages. The weather has been mild and the lack of any severe heat events helps with retention of acidity and long, slow ripening for complexity. 2023 was the last of 3 ‘La Nina’ years in a row for Australia.

PH:
2.9

ACIDITY:
6.6 g/L
