The Barossa is Australia’s most famous wine region. Thankfully, it has also been my home since 1980 and where I have been fortunate to be amongst an amazing group of people here. 

Jellicoe lies high up in the Eden Valley at around 475 metres above sea level. These low-yielding, 30+-year-old Riesling vines are planted on the lean, rocky yellow podzolic soils and the cool climate perfectly accentuates the classic Riesling typicity. 

Tasting Notes

Colour:

Pale straw with a lime green tinge.

Aroma:

Lifted lemon, grapefruit and lime citrus on the nose.

Palate:

A finely textured palate that is brilliantly focused and linear. Pristine citrus fruits and balanced by classic, regional Eden Valley bright acidity, leading to superbly long mouth-watering dry finish. Wonderfully poised for a graceful development.

Food Pairing:

Barbequed scallops or King George Whiting, Salt & Pepper Whole fish or garlic prawns all work with the refreshing style served chilled

2024 Jellicoe Eden Valley Barossa Riesling Reviews

Offering fabulous fruit purity and finesse, the delicately fragrant bouquet shows Granny Smith apple, lime cordial, lemon pith and white floral notes, leading to a concentrated palate offering terrific tension and drive. Finely textured and persistent with beautifully pitched acidity, leading to a sustained, refined finish.
