They are one of the true legends of the story of wine in Aussie and although they’ve been a bit quieter in recent times it’s fair to say the legends of Orlando are back!
With a history dating back to 1874 and winner of over 1,000 top end awards since the 1980s these legendary wine labels have been given a new lease of life and we’re stoked to see them back on our shelves! We’re talking about legends like Centenary Hill Shiraz, Lawsons Padthaway Shiraz, Jacaranda Coonawarra Cabernet and the Steingarten Eden Valley Riesling.
This is the 2019 vintage of Orlando Steingarten Riesling from the Eden Valley. Steingarten was the first of its kind Australian Riesling from high altitude and rocky terroir, first produced over 50 years ago…
94/100 (Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review)
“Intense, concentrated and youthful riesling with green apple, lime juice, oyster-shell, wet stone and faintly floral flavours, with a backbone of assertive acidity. An impressive wine with obvious potential”
93/100 (Huon Hooke, The Real Review)
“It will live long and reward some cellaring.”
93/100 (Stuart Knox, The Real Review)
“With all that intensity there’s still balance, so prepare this one for long-term cellaring”
A legend made with the cellar in mind. Try tucking this one away up until 2035.
