James Halliday Wine Companion

Description Stunning single vineyard Riesling from the Adelaide Hills. Named after the first daughter of the 6th generation of Smeaton lineage, the ‘Sienna’ is a pure expression of true Riesling flavours and reflects the unique terroir and 440 metre altitude of the Martin Hill vineyard in the Adelaide Hills. For over 100 years the Smeaton lineage have been pioneers in the wine industry. In 1892, Henry Richardson, great grandfather of Jan Smeaton, was among the first to plant grapes in the Coonawarra region. In 1996, Jan and her husband John Smeaton carried on Henry Richardson’s legacy by planting 25 hectares at their Martin Hill vineyard in the Adelaide Hills. Smeaton Estate has supplied grapes to many of the leading wine brands in Australia. James Halliday, giving it 94pts and a special star for Great Value, admired its "... rich line of lime and Granny Smith apple running through in an unbroken stream to the finish. A Riesling of substance and balance." This is pure expression of the Riesling grape, is best enjoyed by itself or paired with a variety of seafood and Asian dishes.

Adelaide Hills is based in the southern Mount Lofty Ranges just east of Adelaide in South Australia. Adelaide Hills is a premium and ancient region with a decidedly cooler climate, meaning crisp nights adds wonderful aromatics to the wines. Adelaide Hills was one of the first regions in Australia to be settled by European settlers of German origin. Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are the hero grapes of the region.
