Riesling was first planted to the shallow, rocky soils of Eden Valley in the early 1850s. The remarkably favourable aspects and climes were destined to yield many of Australia's most memorable vintages of great white wine. Fruit is sourced from mature vineyards, owned and operated by traditional growers who passionately care for their vine. There are ten key growers of preeminent quality Eden Valley Riesling, most of these vineyards are between thirty and forty years old. Fruit is picked early, crushed and chilled, the juices are separated immediately from skins to enhance delicacy. Following a cold vinification, the wine is clarified and promptly bottled to retain the vibrant Eden Valley characters.
