It's Eden Valley purity with a twist: a Riesling that's layered, textural and seriously delicious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt smells like walking past a bakery - honeycomb, peach nectar and warm spice, with fresh pastry and a hint of saffron. The palate is where it really shows its personality: decadent and creamy, with a supple, textural grip that gives way to rich, almost marmalade-like fruit and a savoury edge of spicy oak. A big, generous mouthful of a wine, but crisp acidity keeps it honest right through to a long finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStarted as one of Belinda Hughes' experiments a few years back, this remains a genuine point of difference in the range and is still knitting that new oak together - expect it to be singing by Christmas. Beautiful right now alongside roast chicken or a creamy pasta, or simply poured on its own. This cuvee is exclusive to Different Drop so you won't find it anywhere else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yYxML_jDwNs?si=NoTKsUzB8VAe2a2u\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rieslingfreak","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44478080483371,"sku":"2025 Rieslingfreak No. 11 Mosaik Eden Valley Riesling","price":38.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/2024RieslingfreakNo.11MosaikEdenValleyRiesling.png?v=1770164488","url":"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2025-rieslingfreak-no-11-mosaik-eden-valley-riesling","provider":"Different Drop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
