2024... too new for reviews

Introducing 2023 Not Your Grandma’s Riesling. The 3rd year of La Niña gifted Chaffey Bros another cool vintage in Eden Valley, especially in the 450m+ breezy hills of this 50+ year old Springton vineyard. A lovely, long and gentle ripening season resulted in a wine of ethereal perfume, perfect poise and tension, intensity of fresh citrus flavour balanced by Eden's textbook natural acidity. Riesling on a sunny day is like surfing on a sunbeam! Scintillating Riesling refreshment for every day. Flat-out delicious! Feels like the first day of a long awaited holiday - Pass the freshly shucked oysters! 

This single vineyard expression is made from the Noack family's pristine 40+ year old vineyard at 450m altitude in Springton. Classic Eden Valley in style: crisp and dry, delicate white floral aromas lead into an intense lime citrus/Granny Smith core, intermingled with steely minerality and a sumptuous, textural mouthfeel. There's a soft refreshing acidity balancing the intensity of fruit and providing the backbone to enable medium-long term cellaring if so desired. Winemakers: Daniel Chaffey Hartwig, Huon Fechner + Theo Engela.
