The Ashmead family of Elderton Wines is extremely passionate about producing exemplary Riesling from Eden Valley. Our commitment to making dry Riesling has now lasted over 27 years and we be-lieve it is the standout white grape from our appellation.Whilst Elderton has typically been recognised for our robust red varietals such as Shiraz and Cabernet, our Eden Valley Riesling has, in itself, built an enviable reputation. The 2007 vintage won the trophy for the ‘Best Current Vintage Riesling’ at the 2007 International Riesling Challenge, with the 2008 vintage following up with a gold medal and trophy for ‘Best Dry White Varietal’ at the 2008 Perth Royal Wine Show. The 2010 vintage was named in the top 5 in the 2010 Winestate Wine of the Year and the 2012 vintage won a gold medal at the 2012 International Riesling Challenge.

Tasting Notes
The Eden Valley sub-appellation of the Barossa presents a striking contrast to the Barossa Valley floor characterized by its cooler wetter climate and skeletal mineral-rich soils. These unique conditions are pivotal in cultivating some of Australias and indeed the worlds finest Riesling.Our Riesling is sourced from the Craneford vineyard in Eden Valley and our more recently acquired distinctive vineyard on Mengler Hill. This site boasts Riesling vines planted in the 1940s adding historical depth to our portfolio.For our 2026 Eden Valley Riesling we bring the vibrant fresh characters of our Craneford vineyard with the austere depth and remarkable drive from our new Mengler Hill site. This blend promises to deliver a very pure and compelling expression of Eden Valley Riesling.
Winemakers Notes
The lead into the growing season for 2026 was dry. Late and low winter rains left us reliant on irrigation from a relatively early stage. We see this requirement more at Mengler Hill as this vineyard starts the growing season earlier than Craneford. However the rains did arrive in late February. We were warned however with such little rain typically coming at this time of year this rain event did catch us by surprise In fact we think the rain helped to spur our vines along allowing the crop to developanother level of flavour definition which we see in the wine. Careful vineyard management withplenty of airflow helped to ensure disease risk was confined to a few hot spots. Mengler washandpicked and Craneford by machine first up in the coolth of the morning.In 2026 due to small volumes and now understanding how well the two vineyard sites can worktogether we blended together the Mengler and Craneford parcels and fermented as one.The new wine was left on lees to retain freshness avoiding any risk of oxidation and stabilised just prior to bottling.- Jules Ashmead Brock Harrison
Food Pairings
Fresh vibrant and zippy this Riesling shines alongside seafood and bright herb-driven dishes. Think freshly shucked oysters with a squeeze of lemon kingfish sashimi with yuzu or a Thai green papaya salad. Its just as at home with a goats cheese tart or a bowl of steamed mussels.Perfect for sunny afternoons long lunches and anything by the water.

Just a quick note to say I am so glad I found Australia Tasting Room! Since leaving Australia, I have missed some of my favorite wines.
I researched other freight companies, but none offered the personal touch service of Australia Tasting Room. You have a great selection from the best vineyards. You added others upon request, and also gave great recommendations when asked.
And customer service does not stop with the purchase— The team keep me updated on the shipment every step of the way! I cannot imagine a better service from people who know wine and love to share that knowledge.
You have a customer for life!
Cheers, J Mason

The wine was delivered by GSO Courier early this am and was in perfect shipping condition. The bottle temperature was cool to the touch which is amazing given we have been hitting 37C every day for the last week here in our California summer.
Well done!
I have put the wine into our temperature controlled bottle storage to let them rest for a week (mostly for the 3 bottles of red). I did put one of the Rosés in the frig which we will try tomorrow because we are out to dinner tonight with friends.
Your Rose of Virginia is my favorite rosé, above French and Californians that we have consumed with Tablas Creek “Dianthus” from near Paso Robles being a second.
Now that we have experienced a shipment from you, I am sure we will order a couple of cases more but will wait until weather is cooler for us and the wine.
Again thanks for an excellent wine and the good service.

The wine arrived last week in good shape - nothing broken or leaked. Your packing design is impressive. Laying it down for a couple of months to settle in. Looking forward to enjoying it.
Thanks very much

Australia Tasting Room is a very fine company, with professional direction and management. I appreciate the friendly service, and all your efforts above and beyond to make all deliveries happen. Most impressive were the instant answers and responses any time I had a question.
All during a pandemic! Pretty amazing when you think about it.

Our twelve pack of Tasmanian treats arrived yesterday afternoon without a scratch on them! Now we get to enjoy drinking them with family and friends. Hopefully we can toast some excellent defensive draft picks by the Packers soon!
Thanks for an excellent experience with Australia Tasting Room!
If you ever find yourself in Wisconsin, let us know. We're only an hour away from Lambeau.

We will continue to watch for its availability in our area, and we wish you continued success.
