a girl and a glass

I know it's the start of a new month and I should be choosing a new #flavourofthemonth but I can't.  I've only had the chance to write up 2 rieslings in March and I just don't think that's enough - do you?  So I've decided to extend the #flavourofthemonth for April too.   This week, in case you missed the giant photo above I'm talking about Langmeil's Riesling.   Langmeil is another fabulous Barossa winery.  The cellar door is in Tanunda - my favourite town in the Barossa because of the proximity of my favourite wineries.   I'd love to tell you all about the first time I visited the cellar door, but I suspect it was my third or fourth stop on the day so the details are a little hazy ;-)  Anyway on to the wine.  While the cellar door is in Tanunda the grapes from the riesling come from Eden Valley which is cooler than the Barossa Valley's lower regions.  When you first pour the wine into the glass you'll notice that it's ver...

I can't remember the first time I tried a Langmeil wine.  In fact I'd be hard pressed to even name my favourite of what they produce.  I am however very partial to this Eden Valley Dry Riesling.  Crisp acidity with a hint of fruit, I thoroughly enjoyed drinking it.  In fact.  I drank it all.  By myself.  Over a few nights. Nope I didn't share.  Not even a drop.  And I'm not ashamed of it. Cheers Sally
