Sorby Adams Museum Jellicoe Riesling 2008
About the wine
Eden Valley magic in every glass
- A piece of Eden Valley magic has been captured inside this 14-year-old Riesling, sourced from the Jellicoe vineyard. Named the Golden Triangle, this sub region of Eden Valley has been producing sensational fruit for over 50 years.
- A deep straw gold wine, with toast, lemon rind and quartz on the nose. Catch flinty aromas with hints of orange blossom, jasmine and Bickford’s lime cordial when you pour, followed by a rich palate showing honey, toffee and lemon. Great mineral acidity, finishing super dry and bright.
- Crafted by hand by a local master, the Jellicoe Riesling was bottled in June 2008 without fining agents.
