Vintage 2023
This is all class. 95 Points. An excellent Riesling with vibrance, clean lines and an acid length that just purrs, this Mesh 2023 from the Eden Valley is a ripper! From the website: Clare Valley’s Jeffrey Grosset and Eden Valley’s Robert Hill-Smith work together each vintage before taking their chosen grapes – Jeffrey’s in the blue buckets and Robert’s in the yellow - and parting ways to crush and ferment the fruit at different locations. Lime zest, green apple and apple sours light up the mood. Add some grapefruit and lime juice and it's humming with that citrusy vibe and tang. There is a fine rub of texture in the form of Mediterranean tonic with an attractive mouth perfume. A wine that has proven to age well, this is all class for the asking price.

95 POINTS. A collaboration between two great riesling dudes 95 Points A collaboration between two great riesling dudes, Jeffrey Grosset and Robert Hill Smith, has just got to be great, right!?! Pale straw with aromas of freshly squeezed lime, green apple and white peach along with Bickford's cordial, Christmas lily, crushed stone and green-apple sorbet. With just a touch of grapefruit pith, the wine displays that classic 'tubular' palate shape, a core of pure limey fruit being propelled by vivid minerally acidity finishing dry, stony and flush with lime and floral top notes.

Green and vibrant in appearance. Aromas of zesty lemon with hints of grapefruit. The palate is intense and generous with lively lime and citrus flavours, finishing with refreshing acidity. As is the case with all great Eden Valley Rieslings, 2023 mesh will age gracefully into a mature wine.
