Peter Lehmann Eden Valley Riesling
Riesling was first planted in the shallow, rocky soils of the Eden Valley, high in the Barossa ranges, in the early 1850’s. Time has revealed this place to be a natural home for Riesling which, to quote Peter Lehmann, is ‘the noblest white wine variety’. Peter Lehmann Eden Valley Rieslings have the unique distinction of being awarded the trophy for the Best Riesling in the World at the International Wine and Spirit Competition in London 5 times – more than any winemaker in the world.
Pale lemon with green tints, the wine has a floral aroma with distinctive lime notes. The refreshing lime flavours carry through on the palate which has a zesty freshness, a steely minerality and a strikingly clean finish. With careful cellaring, it will continue to develop and honey in the bottle for a further five to ten years.
