McGuigan Wines Shortlist Riesling 2018
- Fresh, juicy
- Eden Valley
As Ella Fitzgerald once sang, ‘summertime and the rizza’s easy’. Or something like that. It makes sense; a delicious riesling perfectly accompanies summertime hangs. And now you can add these summer tunes to your ‘shortlist’ with McGuigan’s riesling. A 96 Halliday point legendary wine, glistening in gold stars. Crafted by one of our fave white wine producers, this gold medal-winning riesling pays testament to the lush fruit coming out of the region. Super pale, super aromatic and super balanced, if you’re after a summer drop loaded with limes, heady with lemons and delivers just the right amount of minerality - then get ready for a bargain, because this is the bottle for you. How’s that for a show tune?

Region
Eden Valley
Next door to the Barossa Valley lies Eden Valley, a small yet highly significant Aussie region celebrated for their signature cool climate wines and impressive history. According to our sources, the first Eden Valley vineyard was planted in the early 1840s, and today there are just over 12 local wineries, both boutique and family-owned that continue to produce, exceptional vintages, including the famous Yalumba and Henschke. Renowned for their signature riesling and shiraz, the glorious region is a heavenly picking field for A-grade fruit. It comes as no surprise that many of Australia's winemakers source their grapes from the Eden Valley.
