Pewsey Vale Eden Valley Single Vineyard Estate 1961 Block Riesling 2018

Eden Valley, South Australia, AustraliaWinemaker Louisa Rose is behind this remarkable bottle of Oz riesling. The 1961 block is a new look at the oldest vines on Pewsey Vale Vineyard. It is all handpicked, and the juice is wild fermented and aged for a few months on its lees before bottling and release. A low intervention riesling that simply sings in the glass. It is hard not to stress the purity of this wine, the minerality and the balance that would suggest this will age for years under screwcap. The winery suggests you serve it with kingfish sashimi with lime jelly or vegetable spring rolls with Vietnamese herbs. You can modify for your needs. I enjoyed it with curried chickpeas and rice with a side of over-roasted cauliflower.Tasted: 01 April 2020Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
