‘Enchanted Garden of the Eden Valley’

Riesling   |   Eden Valley - Australia

About

The “Enchanted Garden” was planted in 1910 and thrives to this day, a seven-acre Eden Valley Vine Garden lovingly tended by Sue and Stuart Woodman. Elena always knew this would be one of the most special vineyards in the Dandelion family and it was a relationship that Zar had with the Woodman’s to make this happen. In 2025, the wine is made up of two blocks: one from the original planting in 1910 and one that is 25-years-old. This vintage in the Eden Valley was characterized by low rainfall with warmer than average days in the summer and fall.

Whole bunches were hand-picked in early March then de-stemmed without crushing the fruit to fill our press exactly. Juice from the free run and pressings were separated then fermented in a small tank between 35º-55ºF degrees Celcius. After four months in tank, the wine was bottled with a vegan fining, a sterile filtration, and a dose of sulfur.

Tasting Note

Straw-bright with citrus, pineapple, and green apple jumping out. Crisp, mineral, and mouthwatering, the acidity drives it long and dry.
