Penfolds 2023, Bin 51, Riesling, Eden Valley, Australia
£29.95 per bottle
ABV 11.5%
"This scintillating 2023 Riesling Bin 51 illustrates the magic to be found in the Eden Valley from this vintage. It offers up a freight train of vibrant, precise aromas as it bursts with lime juice and pith with an exotic floral lift, plus a touch of sulphur from recent bottling, which will fade quickly.
There's a beautiful compact shape, too, all tight, focused and pristine. There is fantastic power and volume of fruit to follow, with al-dente acidity providing the perfect backbone as its powers through to a long, sustained, vibrant finish.
Brilliant stuff from a great year."
