Penfolds Bin 51 Eden Valley Riesling 2023
Bin 51 captures many attributes of the Eden Valley locale. The region’s high altitude and cool climate induces riesling with great finesse and elegance and a capacity for long-term cellaring. South Australia has gained worldwide recognition for producing definitive world-class riesling and Eden Valley always features.
In the 2023 vintage, explore typical Eden Valley aromatics of lifted orange blossom & freshly diced pink lady apples. The palate brims with alluring flavours of blood orange, passionfruit & lime, balanced with a natural zesty lemon acid.
Gorgeous varietal aromatics. Punchy citrus fruits jump out: lime zest, lemon blossom/pith. Spring flowers – jonquil and apple blossom. Perfumed bath salts. Exotic fruits.
Fresh and zesty. Citrus characters abound, lime juice noted. Flavorsome exotic fruits, feijoa, persimmon. There is a lovely drive to this wine, with mineral, mouth-watering/juicy mineral acidity. A wet stone/river pebble finish. Delicious now, with the promise of more to come.
