Radford Dale make the best Eden Valley Riesling I’ve ever tasted, says Rhys from Sydney on-line wine retailer, The Vine Press. And I’ve tasted a few in my “young” (don’t-mention-the-number) years! New into our cellars this month is the 2007 vintage which looks like being every bit the stunner the 06 was.
Ben Radford, current winemaker at Rockford, has spent close to a decade making wine in South Africa, Burgundy and Canada.
