The 2025 Tim Smith Riesling is a vibrant Eden Valley Riesling that captures the purity and freshness of one of Australia’s premier cool-climate regions. Sourced from high-altitude vineyards, the wine is crafted to highlight bright citrus fruit, crisp natural acidity and the distinctive mineral character that defines Eden Valley Riesling. Made entirely in stainless steel, it is a lively and expressive wine with excellent balance and ageing potential.
The nose reveals aromas of lime, lemon blossom and green apple alongside hints of jasmine and wet stone. The palate is crisp and focused, with vibrant citrus and orchard fruit flavours supported by racy acidity and a fine mineral backbone. Fresh, dry and beautifully balanced, it finishes long with lingering lime zest and refreshing precision.
Ben’s Recommendation:
A classic Eden Valley Riesling that offers exceptional purity and drinkability. Its bright acidity and mineral freshness make it a perfect match for oysters, grilled prawns, sashimi, Thai salads and fresh goat’s cheese. Enjoy now for its youthful vibrancy or cellar through 2035 as it develops classic toasty and citrus marmalade complexity.
