Valley of Eden is made in an “off dry” style, with slightly higher residual sweetness. Elegant and pure, the Valley of Eden is expressive of regional character, with textural complexity and vibrant acidity.
"Sourced from a vineyard established in 1972 in the Eden Valley enclave of Flaxman Valley. A lovely little off-dry example of the region's famous grape variety. Lime, citrus and grapefruit notes, crushed stone and orange blossom all catch the eye (nose?). The crisp, crystalline acidity tempers the 15g/l of residual sugar here, so we'll call it just off-dry. We'll also call it delicious." 92 points - Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion
