Eden Valley Riesling, with higher elevation cooler sites, shows zesty citrus and talc along with the hallmark crunchy acidity.

Good winter rains in July and August preceded a warm and dry spring. The growing season was very dry from mid-November with very few rain events. Vintage time for St Hallett was similar to more recent vintages with steady ripening throughout the season. Overall a very dry growing season with a warm spring, occasionally hot summer, a perfect autumn and slightly below average crops delivered densely flavoured wines.
