Description
 
The Powell & Son Eden Valley Riesling emanates from a single site in the high Flaxman’s Valley, 480 metres above sea level. The five acre vineyard showcases dry grown, rod and spur pruned Riesling vines now over eighty years old. Grapes are hand-picked, whole bunch pressed, cold settled and fermented dry prior to cold stabilisation and bottling.

This 2020 Barossa Valley Marsanne is plump, round and rich with toasted pineapple and a slippery texture. Everything in the mouth holds together—it is tight and exciting. It has great length of flavor. The round viscosity of the front palate suggests it’s going to be short and rotund, but it’s not. It draws out over the finish and has very good length. Impressive. The fruit starts the ferment in tank (wild), then about a third of the way through, it goes into French oak barrique (Serouge), halfway through malolactic fermentation, with bâtonnage every couple of months and nine months' maturation. No added acid. This is a beguiling wine. “Good year," says winemaker Dave Powell. 200 cases. Wine Advocate 92
