G 97
Mid-yellow. Alluring aromas of honeyed toast, lemon curd, creme brûlée, citrus and baked spiced apple. Youthful and vibrant to taste with a rare energy for its age combining a tangy acid drive amid lemon sherbet, citrus intensity, spiced apple, pear and enveloping honeysuckle aromatics. Warm and toasty with a developing honey-ness, finishes on a bright sherbet note. Now–2048 Ms. L Wines Eden Valley Single Vineyard Riesling 2025 G 96 Pale lemon.

A restrained riesling, quiet and subdued and slow to reveal. It is going to take a while to show its qualities. Aromas of green apple, grapefruit, lemon, and spring flowers. Older vines bring a quality that combines a light texture with deeply concentrated flavour. There is an intensity to the fruit released as lemon curd, zest and grapefruit pith with green apple. Super bright and zesty, running clean and brisk. Has yet to reveal all of its charm. Now–2046 Poonawatta The Eden Riesling 2026 G 96 Pale lemon. Fine, intense dusty, earthy citrus notes, curry leaf, Asian lime and pear. A young riesling showing early complexity and depth of flavour with a light savoury influence in league with a coiled acidity on the back palate. A peppery spiciness lights up the wine with energy and life. Now–2039
