Rieslingfreak No. 12 Flaxman Valley 2025

High Eden, Eden Valley, South Australia, Australia2025 No. 12 came from 3 estate vineyards in Flaxman Valley, in High Eden (even higher and racier than the normally racy Eden Valley). This screams along the bone dry palate, with lime sherbet, verbena, crunchy green apple, white grapefruit, bedded with fine lees and scented with bruised florals. Acidity is racy and striving, propelling this through the buzzy finish. Lightning lean and sharp, and possibly a bit too much for those not supreme Acid Freaks. 11.6% abv, 0.71 g/L RS, 9.7 g/L TA.Tasted: 22 May 2026Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
