Dandelion Vineyards, Eden Valley (Australia) 2016

This is one of two fabulous Rieslings from Dandelion, and while this is the less expensive of the two, it’s a stunning wine.  Sweetly floral on the nose, it also shows aromas of wet stone lime, leading you to expect a little sugar on the palate.  Then the acid hits your tongue and lights up the bone-dry character with flavors of lime, granite and spice.  Amazing age-worthy Riesling is becoming an Eden Valley signature thanks to Dandelion. A Platinum Award winner at the 2017 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
