Pewsey Vale Single Vineyard Estate Riesling 2014
Eden Valley, South Australia, AustraliaEnglishman Joseph Gilbert planted the Pewsey Vale vineyard in 1847 but it wasn’t until 1961 Geoff Angas-Parsons and Wyndham Hill Smith fully develop the historic vineyard site into the contoured Pewsey Vale Vineyard - a single vineyard dedicated to the single variety – riesling. A windy spring led to an uneven set before a late frost conspired to reduce the crop. This single vineyard riesling is sourced from wind whipped fruit grown at 540 metres. Bone dry, with tight, lime pith acidity and a fist of stones, this youthful riesling is waiting for the future to stretch its legs. Now you can expect bitter melon, subtle lime and eraser with racy acids and salted, dried herbs and a mineral lingering finish.Tasted: 23 March 2016Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Treve RingPrices:| BC | $21.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
