Pewsey Vale Eden Valley Riesling – Pale straw with green hues. Intense aromas of fine dried herbs, white flowers, lemon and lime. A long and rich palate, reminiscent of grapefruit, lime and fresh rosemary. The wine finishes with a soft natural acidity which balances the flavour and minerality that is delicious now or will reward medium to long-term cellaring.
Riesling is our single focus. Naturally our undivided attention goes into making a Riesling that’s simply delicious. Every bottle captures the purity of our single site vineyard in Eden Valley where nature is
left undisturbed to do its thing. It’s no wonder we consistently deliver high quality award-winning Riesling. Pewsey Vale was the first Riesling vineyard planted in Eden Valley more than 175 years ago. Consistent in
flavour and quality from vintage to vintage. Flavourful and refreshing with an approachable, soft natural acidity iconic to Eden Valley.
A dry start to the growing season meant that vines grew quickly and early. Some rain in late spring and early autumn was appreciated by the vines which set average crops. Summer continued to be dry and balmy,
ripening the grapes quickly. Cool nights retained aromatics and natural acidity in the grapes, giving perfect balance and delicious Eden Valley Riesling flavours from the 2024 vintage.
First planted in 1847 by Joseph Gilbert, the son of an English landowner from the Vale of Pewsey in Wiltshire. This iconic vineyard is now under the custodianship of the Hill-Smith family, who have reinvigorated the vineyard since they bought the property in 1970, focusing on the beauty and diversity of Riesling in its many forms.
There are now 66 hectares of Riesling planted at Pewsey Vale Vineyard, at an altitude between 450 and 500 metres above sea level. The vineyard is planted in a generally north-facing amphitheatre looking down to the southern Barossa Valley.
