Pewsey Vale Riesling 2007
Riesling
from Barossa Valley, Australia
winemaker's notes:
Each individual block of grapes was picked at optimum ripeness exhibiting
the classic ripe flavors gorgeous natural acid freshness evident in the Pewsey
Vale Vineyard, Eden Valley. Timing could not have been more perfect as the
rain and cold weather came in early April 2007 when the wines were safely
tucked away in tank.
The 2007 Pewsey Vale Riesling is a rich and intensely flavored wine, with
classic fruit aromas of lemons and limes and a hint of overlaying dried herb.
This wine shows great length, finishing with a soft but fresh natural acidity
which balances the flavor intensity, and will reward with medium to longterm
cellaring.
"Light, delicate and immensely appealing for its gentle lime, orange peel, peach and mineral aromas and flavors, lingering on the refined finish. Drink now through 2017."
