The Reserve Eden Valley Riesling 2019

The GI region is 591 km² in size and has a total of 2169 hectares of vineyards. The main varieties grown in the region are Riesling, Shiraz, Chardonnay, and Cabernet Sauvignon.

The Eden Valley sits at a significantly higher altitude (217-630m above sea level) than the Barossa Valley, and this provides for growing season temperatures that are lower than those of the neighbouring region, with the final stages of ripening and harvesting taking place in significantly cooler conditions.

“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
