October is Riesling Month

October is Riesling Month

Every year during October the Barossa celebrates all things Riesling, a variety that is both delicious & versatile. At Bethany Wines we source our Riesling grapes from the Batten vineyard in Flaxman’s Valley, Eden Valley. A strong partnership which has continued for many years and allowed us to produce various styles of Rieslings to suit all tastes.

 Eden Valley is a cool climate region nestled between 400 and 600 meters above sea level and is part of the Barossa and Mount Lofty Ranges. It is rough, rocky country that belies its ability to produce wines of great delicacy and finesse.  The cooler climate of the Eden Valley allows fruit to experience longer ripening periods which is perfect for flavour accumulation and intensity. 

Riesling & Cheese Tasting

Join us here at Bethany Wines, as we guide you through our superb Riesling range, paired with a delicious cheese board from The Barossa Valley Cheese Company. The tasting will take you from the bone dry styles including our crisp First Village, our intense and powerful Blue Quarry and to the richer and complex Reserve Riesling, finishing with the lusciously sweet Late Harvest Riesling.
