Freya was the foremost goddess of ancient Germanic lands where the Riesling grape originated. This wine honours early German settlers who cultivated the first Riesling vine in the exemplary micro-climate of the Barossa’s Eden Valley.
Tasting notes:
Floral lemon blossom aromas lead to delicate citrus characters seamlessly backed
by flinty notes. A long fine profile is well balanced with mid-palate flesh and zesty
acidity typical of great dry Eden Valley Rieslings.
Review:
96 points, Decanter
Like the stern but beautiful Norse goddess this wine is named after, it is formidable: bone dry, stoic and confident. Built around an austere line of sharp citrus, it also has good mineral grip and a pleasing lick of talc at the finish. There’s a concentration of flavours without forcing any element, amplifying the attributes of a superior vintage. Effortless balance is achieved in this powerful wine.
