Only 1000 bottles made. For the entire globe.When you're feeling the thirst for extravagance, we're with you. Embrace it with ODEON Riesling, made following the path less travelled. Here at Vinteloper we're having a debate about nature vs nurture. In winemaking, which is best? Made from exactly the same grapes as R/19 Riesling, the artistic framework of ODEON Riesling is to intervene as little as possible and let nature take its course. The Art side of our Art vs Science debate. No additions. Natural yeast fermentation in old French oak barrels. After fermentation we allow the wine to mature in oak through the winter, settling naturally prior to bottling. Australian Riesling, just not as you know it. All the frills. Tasting notes Intentionally released with time in the bottle, it's citrus fruit and blossom wrapped in butterscotch, marzipan and deeply toasted muesli. Wax and mineral fight as it builds through the lengthy finish. Spice, ginger and mineral undertones intensify all the way. Drinking wonderfully now, the body and acidity of this wine will see it reward cellaring for 10+ years. Where it comes from Single Vineyard. Region: Watervale, Clare Valley Elevation: 440m Harvested 27th February 2019 Grower: Bryksys Hill Vineyard. 11.8% alc/vol What we did to it After harvest, we kept our influence to a minimum. Natural yeast fermentation Fermented, then matured in French oak for 10 months. 18 months to relax in bottle prior to release. Production: 1000 bottles. Bottled and labelled by hand. Label Art: @fauxnonfaux What we match it with Anywhere other Riesling would suit is a great start. It stands up to broader, earthier flavours. Think outside the box and try something unique. It sings with West African cuisine, like Senegalese Chicken Yassa.
