About The Wine
Andrew Wardlaw's gateway skin-contact Riesling from old vine Eden Valley Riesling.
The Riesling pressings spend 12 hours on skins, gaining a lick of bitterness and structure. Fermentation in old oak adds extra texture.
A quietly enticing wine of gentle citrus, spice and moreish delights. Three glasses of this and it's a downward spiral to his 180 day maceration Riesling...
About Edenflo
Winemaker Andrew Wardlaw has been making low-intervention wines in the Barossa & Eden Valleys since 1996.
His gentle touch is producing gorgeous, seductive wines with a true sense of place. He uses basket presses and gravity to move the juice around, preserving all the natural deliciousness of the fruit.
As Andrew told Mike Bennie in a GT WINE article, “I was growing grapes organically – no chemicals, no additives – so it made sense to do the same as organic gardening, to throw everything [undesirable] in the winery away,” he says. “I’ve been doing it for ages. People just thought I was a bit crazy.”
If you feel like dipping your toe into natural wines, this is a safe place for you to start.

Critic Reviews
"Fre’quency from Andrew W of EdenFlo. This has personality and pizzazz. Scents of green apple, talc, wet fern and alpine herbs. Squirts across the palate with juicy green apple characters, lemony tang and some good, puckering grip thrown in for free. Flavours are a little light on, but you can see high refreshment factor and a great deal of pleasure writ large here." - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!
Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.
Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
