Peter Lehmann Wigan Riesling 2004



NOTES

The Wigan Eden Valley Riesling offers a rare opportunity for wine lovers to experience the delights of an aged Riesling. As young wines, Peter Lehmann Wines Eden Valley Rieslings show floral aromatics with fresh crisp and lively citrus flavours on the palate. After ageing in the bottle for 5 years, the Wigan Eden Valley Riesling delivers a toasty bouquet and a crisp, zesty palate.

 

Named the Wigan after Chief Winemaker Andrew Wigan, who has been involved with the making of every Riesling bottled under the Peter Lehmann Wines label since the beginning. The Wigan Riesling is a testament to his success with Riesling both within Australia and on the International Wine Show circuits.

 

TASTING NOTES

Colour is a bright lemon with green tinges. This multiple gold medal winner has the classical Eden Valley lime bouquet and is showing the first hints of toastiness, the result of time in the bottle. The palate is still remarkably youthful with fresh racy acidity and a honeyed deepening on the middle palate. Eden Valley Riesling at its finest.
