Riesling from Barossa Valley, Australia: Pewsey Vale Eden Valley Riesling 2009


Rich and intensely flavored wine. Classic fruit aromas of talcum, crushed stone and limes, with a hint of overlaying dried herb. The palate shows great length and depth with lemons and limes. The wine finishes with a soft but fresh natural acidity which balances the flavor intensity and a minerality that will reward medium to long-term cellaring.

Light and refreshing, with pinpoint pear, apple and grapefruit flavors, the fruit echoing on the beautifully formed finish. Drink now through 2019.
