Long regarded as one of Australia's finest Riesling makers, the 2022 Poonawatta The Eden Riesling is another brilliant example of Eden Valley Riesling that will only enhance the reputation of this produce.
Poonawatta's The Eden Riesling is produced from a single vineyard of two hectares in the heart of the Eden Valley region. Established in 1972, these old vines cling to some of the thinnest soils on the Poonawatta property; the lean environment keeping the yields relatively low, the flavours concentrated and pure. Only free run juice is used in making The Eden Riesling, to capture the purity of the variety, and the truest possible expression of the site.
A powerhouse of fresh citrus, with a lemon-lime bouquet and hints of apple blossom and sage. The vibrant palate is awash with citrus lime and Meyer lemon, granny smith apple with the slatey acidity driving a long finish.
