While enduring drought conditions led to smaller yields during the ‘25 vintage, the big win is Bin 51’s impressive purity of expression and scintillating fresh acidity. Starts aromatically vibrant – pure Eden Valley – with its scent of apple blossom, spring flowers and citrus with bath salts, yellow apple. Succulent, juicy and, at times, tart like sucking on a grapefruit, it bursts with youthful energy and citrus intensity across the palate with a lemon sorbet brightness.
