Torzi Matthews Schist Rock Eden Valley Riesling 2008 A new Schist on the block and pretty handy wine too. It smells of cut apple, faint citrus, some mineral and bit of honeysuckle. On the palate it lacks real Eden finesse and focus but has good flavour. It tastes of apple, a bit of citrus and again that minerality but it’s pretty much soft and easy going with some attractive textural grip to compensate. In short, it’s good to drink young with a low risk of ‘weaned on dill pickle face’ syndrome cropping up during those vital social engagements… . It’s obviously a warm year wine and I’d say a good drinking dry white first and foremost rather than a racy Riesling, but none the worse for that. Drink : 2008 - 2010 90 points Gary Walsh, Winorama Sourced from three Eden Valley sites that expresses this wines thin shaley schisty grounds for where it displays the up most mouth watering experience. We hand harvested the small framed bunches once we had a cooling off period on March 14 for which during the dark hours of the morning we armed ourselves with the largest army of hand pickers (40) and have the whole bunch press free run juice only snap cold settled at 2 degrees with 5% solids for wild yeast ferment for 6 weeks. Pulled this first release of Schist Rock Riesling off with the hugest grin…Mouth watering experience. Dominic Torzi
