It is produced from a selection of longstanding Eden Valley riesling growers, whose vines range from 10 to 70 years of age, growing in low-vigour, ancient Cambrian soils at around 500m altitude. Fourth-generation winemaker Cyril Henschke began building a reputation for premium Eden Valley riesling from 1961. The region’s continental climate and sandy loam soils provide ideal conditions for producing riesling wines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCellaring potential\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e20+ years from vintage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2025 growing season began under continued dry conditions, with below-average winter rainfall failing to replenish soil moisture. Unseasonably warm late-winter weather prompted an early budburst, followed by a devastating frost event in mid-September that caused widespread damage across much of south-eastern Australia. Remarkably, vine recovery exceeded expectations, with fruitful secondary buds forming bunches on new shoots. Supplementary irrigation was required to maintain vine health throughout winter, spring, and summer. Although yields were expected to be low, they surpassed conservative estimates. Like spring, summer also arrived early, with a warming trend from mid-November laying the foundation for one of the hottest and driest seasons in living memory. Fortunately, early February saw only short bursts of heat. Eden Valley riesling fared well, with harvest occurring in the cooler part of February.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFermented in tank and bottled post-vintage to preserve the delicate aromatic fruit characters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e100% Riesling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2.80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAcidity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e7.33 g\/L\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion - 94 Pts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePale in the glass with just a youthful flash of green and aromas of freshly squeezed lims, Bickfords cordial and hints of Christmas lilies, crushed stone, green apple, citrus blossom, lemongrass and kaffir lime.
