Description

100% riesling grown on the Henschke Lenswood Vineyard in the Adelaide Hills, managed with organic and biodynamic practices.

Fermented in tank and bottled post-vintage to preserve the delicate aromatic fruit characters. Bottle aged in the Henschke cellar for museum release.

Fifth-generation winemakers Stephen and Prue Henschke established their Lenswood vineyard in the Adelaide Hills in 1981. At 550m, the Lenswood vineyard offers not only magnificent views over the traditional vine country, but also higher rainfall and humidity at the right time of the year, cooler temperatures to retain high natural acidity, and still enough sunshine to fully ripen the grapes. The Green’s Hill Riesling is planted on a perfect west-facing slope, on loam soil containing shale fragments. It was so named as it overlooks the apple orchards operated by the Green family since 1893.

Pale gold with green hues. Lifted aromas of citrus blossom, nectarine and red apple, with hints of elderflower, jasmine and juniper. A finely textured palate of lemon zest, white currant, pink grapefruit and ginger is driven by bright, mouth-watering acidity, finishing long, crisp and refreshingly pure. 

Excellent vintage; drink now to 2045+
