Delivery Details

Henschke Julius 2023 Riesling is a premium white wine produced in the famous Eden Valley region of Southern Australia. The Julius is a tribute to ancestor Albert Julius Henschke (1888-1955), a highly acclaimed artist and sculptor.

On the nose, intensely perfumed aromas of citrus blossom, freesia, and lime leaf are complemented with delicate notes of jasmine, fresh salmon,d and thyme. The palate is rich and concentrated with lemon zest and lime sherbet. A crisp and refined acidity allows for a long and powerful finish. 

The wine is organic and produced using bio-dynamic methods. The Eden Valley region provides ideal ripening conditions for Riesling and a unique track record of exceptional aging potential. The Henschke Eden Valley Riesling vineyard is planted on sandy loam over gravel and bedrock with patches of clay.

'97 points. Pale straw in the glass with flashes of green. Aromas of pure, freshly squeezed lime juice, lime zest, crushed quartz, Christmas lily, makrut lime, white flowers, marzipan and Bickford's lime cordial. A laser-like focus on the palate entry, limey fruit riding with great velocity on rails of minerally acidity. Such a precise and pristine wine with a real sense of tension and release, like a great piece of classical music. This certainly seems to me to be a very strong vintage for this wine, one which I look forward to revisiting over time as it slowly evolves. Excellent. Special Halliday Award.' Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion.au
Grape: Riesling
While the winter of 2022 saw average rainfall, the latter part of the year brought cooler and above average wet weather. A hail flurry on 23rd January caused some damage to the green berries, which became sites for botrytis infections later during ripening. The cool lead-up to vintage resulted in a slow ripening period, allowing for great flavour development and acid retention. Rainfall during harvest encouraged the growth of botrytis, but careful hand selection during picking delivered good quality fruit. Despite the challenges, the 2023 vintage will be remembered for excellent quality wines with Riesling.
The wine is pale gold with lime green hues. On the nose, intensely perfumed aromas of citrus blossom, freesia and lime leaf are complemented with delicate notes of jasmine, fresh almond and thyme. The palate is rich and concentrated with lemon zest and lime sherbet. A crisp and refined acidity allows for a long and powerful finish.
