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.

Pewsey Vale

The Pewsey Vale Vineyard was established at Eden Valley in 1847 producing some of Australia’s first cool climate wines. The early Pewsey Vale Vineyard Rieslings were exported to England where they won numerous awards in the prestigious wine shows of the era. Today Pewsey Vale Vineyard is a highly esteemed specialist single site estate vineyard with provenance. Riesling is our single focus. Elevated above the Barossa Valley on undulating land Eden Valley is situated between 450 and 500 metres above sea level. At this altitude the cooler temperatures and greater diurnal range allow the grapes to retain their natural acidity with aromatics and fine flavours slowly developing well into the cool dry autumn. The soils through Eden Valley are generally shallow rocky and acidic in many areas suited only to the grazing of sheep and cattle. There are special pockets with slightly deeper soils and finer rocks where the vineyards have been planted. Pewsey Vale is one of the great Riesling vineyards of the world. Where a true alliance between nature and variety exists the need for human intervention is minimal. Gentle guiding hands and an understanding of place are all that is needed to create consistent and delicious wines… vintage after vintage.
