($27, Brown Forman): Two-thirds of the fruit for this wine comes from Clare Valley and one third from the Eden Valley, but US labeling requirements prohibit dual appellations, so the wine is labeled simply South Australia. The Clare Valley produces more overt Rieslings, while Eden Valley Rieslings are known for their finesse and precision. Wakefield’s blend, common among Oz producers, results in a gorgeously balanced wine filled with minerality and finished with a cleansing citric edge. Bone dry, it has extraordinary balance and length and shows the potential of Aussie Riesling. 93 Michael Apstein May 1, 2007
