The 'Stonegarden' vineyard (one of the oldest vineyards in Springton let alone greater Barossa) forms the backbone of the wine. Pendee Farm gives the tropical fruit and Kroehn brings all the lime/citrus.
"New label (I think). Interesting wine in many ways. Left in old oak on lees for a year and goes through malolactic fermentation. All good things, though you’d have to know what you were getting in to beforehand if you were expecting a crisp ‘traditional’ Eden Valley Riesling. Honey, brine, a fino sherry sort of thing here, mint, cinnamon and apple. It’s tangy and tastes kind of golden (synesthetes may get that), a chalky mouth-feel, weighty flavour, brown lime, pie apple with a salty pastry, a quinine-like bitterness in tow, and a fleshy finish of good length. It’s a strange bird, but it’s a good wine." 93pts | Gary Walshe | WineFront
