Eden Valley Riesling 2023
$24.00
Eden Valley sits within the wider Barossa Geographical Indication (GI) and is located an hour’s drive north-east of Adelaide.
Eden Valley sits at a significantly higher altitude (217-630m above sea level) than the Barossa Valley, and this provides for lower growing season temperatures than the surrounding valley floor, with the final stages of ripening and harvesting taking place in significantly cooler conditions.
Slower ripening, cool climate flavour development and a greater retention of acidity are the key attributes that make Eden Valley one of the best growing regions in Australia for the Riesling grape.
“Rieslings from Eden Valley display minerality and vibrant florals, with musky notes thanks to the altitude, varied microclimates and soil structures (black sand, grey loam and coarse rock) within this unique region.” – Keeda Zilm, Vickery Chief Winemaker
