Tasting notes
Light, vivid straw color. Displays vibrant, sharply focused lime, lemongrass and honeysuckle aromas, along with a talc-y mineral topnote. Taut and focused in the mouth, offering bitter citrus pith, quince and fresh fig flavors that stretch out steadily with air. Concentrated and lively in style, finishing with firm cut and strong, mineral-driven persistence.

Refined and classic. Chewy but approachable. (JR)
Very pale lemon. Wet stones, lemon-lime fruit and white flowers. Crisp, light-bodied palate, bone dry, lime-lemon, with delicate floral notes and more stone. Classic Eden Riesling. GV (TJ)
A classic rendering of Eden Valley Riesling, the 2017 Single Vineyard Estate Riesling features textbook florals, green apples and limes. It's light to medium-bodied, crisp and clean, even a bit austere, with a bright, sherbet-like zesty edge on the long finish. Like most Rieslings, it can be drunk young or held a decade or more.
