Long regarded as one of Australia's finest Riesling makers, the 2020 Poonawatta The Eden Riesling is another brilliant example of Eden Valley Riesling.
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.
Reviews of the 2019 vintage included below;
"97 Points. The near-50yo vineyard planted '72 typically yields 2t/a. This is a majestic wine, filling every corner of the mouth with layer upon layer of lime and Meyer lemon juice flavours. A great bargain, that could command twice its price. Screwcap. 12.2% alc. To 2034" $30" - James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion 2021.
"95 Points This is a very fine riesling to drink now but it also has plenty of potential. There’s a bewitchingly floral aroma with hints of gardenia. Intense, lingering and very dry with its savouriness augmented by a little tannin grip. Powerful and lasting as well as refined"- Huon, Hooke, The Real Review
