Sale price: $24.00

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
