Eden Valley Riesling
2022
Eden Valley Riesling
Over several generations, our family has been fortunate to develop valued and longstanding relationships with people within, and related to, the wine industry.
These individuals share our passion and our table, and it is these moments of coming together and sharing the joy of wine that led us to honour them by naming our core group of wines, The Kith Range.
Tasting Notes
Translucent green to slight hints of straw in the glass. On the nose, notes of white blossom, bath salts, and hints of mixed spice with green apple, lemon & lime. Generous flavours of lemon and lime, and soft subtle chalky texture provide balance, moderate acidity carries fruit and provides length. Best paired with freshly shucked oysters with finger lime mignonette dressing.
Style
An approachable fruit-driven style with good acid and backbone.
Region
80% of this wine is sourced from our family vineyards located at our homestead in Eden Valley. The remaining 20% is sourced from the 100-year-old Nitschke vineyard.
Vintage Summary
2022 saw a cooler-than-average growing season that led to extended ripening conditions and retention of natural acidity. As a result, patience was required to wait for optimum harvest dates ensuring full flavour development and acid balance was reached Patience was rewarded with outstanding flavours and varietal definition with exceptional quality across all white varietals.
Maturation
Bottled early to retain the fresh varietal characters.
Cellaring
Drink now to 5 years.
