Tasting Notes
Aroma
A sweetly perfumed bouquet of rosewater and apple blossom dance above
citrusy notes of fresh lime, and lemon pith.
Palate
The palate is bright yet richly
flavoured with the iconic slate-like minerality synonymous with Eden
Valley, providing ballast for the lifted citrus and sweet floral notes that run
the length of the palate through to the crisp, lingering finish. A wine for
immediate enjoyment and complementary to a range of cuisines.
Vintage Notes
The lead up to the 2024 vintage was atypical for Eden Valley with unusually
warm and dry conditions through the Winter and Spring of 2023. Three
consecutive preceding years of record-breaking rainfall however, ensured
soils, dams and aquifers were well supplied with abundant moisture. While
the rains were scarce, a severe hailstorm in late November caused
significant damage across the northern reaches of the Barossa; fortunately
though, hail damage throughout Eden Valley was sporadic and
comparatively minor.
Summer temperatures and rainfall were in line with the long-term average
with sporadic rains dissipating entirely with the onset of Autumn. The
Barossa Valley would experience its driest autumn on record, receiving
only 15% of the long-term average rainfall for the season. The dry ripening
season ensured zero disease pressure with cooler conditions in late summer
and early autumn and occasional short bursts of warmer weather ensuring
maximum flavour development and natural acid retention.
Region Notes
Dead Man Walking Eden Valley Riesling incorporates fruit from four
family growers in Eden Valley – Ben Zander, Michael Mason and Mark
Bartholomaeus in Flaxman Valley, and Avon Brae vineyards near
Springton. These four vineyards are spread across the Southern ranges of
the valley, producing fruit that encapsulates the unique spectrum of aromas,
flavours and mouthfeel that makes Eden Valley Riesling so renown.
