Description
A pure and powerful Eden Valley Riesling featuring bright aromas of honeysuckle, dragon fruit, and citrus flowers, with undertones of musk and rose petal. The palate delivers citrus, crisp green apple, and lime flavours balanced by taut acidity and a refreshing finish. Golden in colour.
This historic single-vineyard wine comes from the 'Enchanted Garden' site, planted in 1910 in Eden Valley. The excellent 2023 vintage saw a wet spring and mild summer, leading to a later harvest that produced fresh, vibrant fruit with aging potential.
Dandelion Vineyards is the project of Elena Brooks, who began her wine journey at age 12 interpreting for international winemakers in her native Bulgaria, making her first wine by 16. Now based in McLaren Vale with her husband Zar, she crafts wines across South Australia's premium regions, from Barossa through Eden Valley and Adelaide Hills to McLaren Vale – what wine journalist Nick Stock dubbed the "blessed curve."
