What to Expect

Riesling is a chameleon of a grape, able to produce world class wines that range from bone dry to unctuously sweet. Germany is most closely associated with Riesling, where all styles are made and the range of flavors runs the gamut from steely and crisp with crunchy mineral-driven flavors to fresh lime, apple and peach flavored expressions - even rich honied, candied fruit tones in the great dessert wines.

Winemakers Notes

Given a mark of 94 points by Philip White on May 19th, 2007.

Rated 90 points (4 & 1/2 glasses) by James Halliday in the James Halliday Australian Wine Companion 2008 Edition. (We also rated as a four and a half star winery )

Hand-picked from 75-80 year old dry-grown vines, with notes of lemon and lime. A little different to the 2005 Karra Yerta Wines Eden Valley Riesling in it's own way but still a taste sensation in its own right.

The winemaker was Simon Adams of Rocland Estate Wines, who was contracted to make it to our specifications. Simon has had extensive read more...experience in the wine industry including at Cellarmasters (Fosters) and he was also head winemaker at S. Smith & Sons, (Yalumba) where he was responsible for the Heggies and Pewsey Vale labels.    (hide)
