2022 Rieslingfreak Riesling Eden Valley No. 44
This is an amazing Dry Riesling - if you have not tried a dry Riesling of this caliber - grab one of these and see what all the hype is!
2022 Rieslingfreak Riesling Eden Valley No. 44.....$19.99
The fruit for this 2022 No. 44 is from a selection of growers in Eden Valley: Springton, Flaxman Valley and Eden Valley. This is soft and talc-y, close to plump but not quite there. It carries the line and form of Eden Valley (that is to say, crushed rock austerity, lime/lemon zest and loads of spring flowers), but it has additional inflections of lavender, Golden Delicious apples and star anise. Lovely
Rated 93+/100 The Wine Advocate
So much crisp pears, tart peaches and lemon aromas here, but also notes of fresh garden herbs! This is a very juicy expression of Eden Valley dry riesling with wonderful balance. A long and zesty finish pulls you back for more. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
