Description
"Created in the 1990s as part of the evolving Penfolds white wine development program, Bin 51 captures many attributes of the Eden Valley locale. The region’s high altitude and cool climate induces Riesling with great finesse and elegance and a capacity for long-term cellaring. South Australia has gained worldwide recognition for producing definitive world-class Riesling and Eden Valley always features. As the first wine release of any new vintage, Bin 51 Eden Valley Riesling offers a window to the future. Elegant and age-worthy, the 2025 vintage reveals scented florals and citrus, a fine mineral edge, and pronounced natural acidity." - Producer Notes
"Pale straw with a flash of green in the glass and a wonderfully pure aromatic profile of freshly squeezed limes, Bickford's lime cordial, lemongrass, Christmas lily, apple sorbet, makrut lime leaf, green apple and citrus rind. Taut yet expressive with citrus and apple fruits flowing freely on the palate, an impressive tubular palate shape and a sapid minerality. Finishes long, taut and impressively pure. The Bin 51 has been in fine form lately and this is another great showing.” - 95 Points, Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion
"Yeasty new-wine aromas, fresh pastry, grated lemon peel, citrus blossoms, the palate very fresh and bright, but the acidity is soft and gentle, not assertive in its youth. Lovely wine already, even better when the yeasty esters settle down." - 93 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review
