2017 Leo Buring Leonay Eden Valley Riesling
Since 1945 Leo Buring has established a reputation as Australia’s foremost maker of Riesling. At Leo Buring we only make Riesling. It is the grape variety that encapsulates everything we strive for, purity, elegance, time and place and the structure to age gracefully. The goal of Leo Buring is simple; to make the best Riesling in Australia and Leonay is our premier Riesling of each vintage. Each year we source the best parcel of grapes from either the Clare or Eden Valley that expresses the purity, elegance and longevity embodied in the Leonay history.
The 2017 Leo Buring DWU57 Leonay Riesling from Eden Valley has developed beautifully from 5 years bottle maturation, with layers of flavour and impeccable length showcasing how Eden Valley Riesling of pedigree can evolve with time.
Nose - Aromatic nose of bright lemon citrus and grapefruit pith fruits intensified with lemon butter and notes of almond nougat.
Palate - A refreshing bright palate with layers of citrus pith, fresh bread, and almond butter. The acidity Is long and mouth-watering, almost melting in the mouth to give way to a delicious and clean lemon curd fruit length.
