Place: Barossa Valley, SA

Variety: Riesling

Farming: Sustainable

Koen Janssens is definitely one of the good guys. When he’s not off making Yetti & The Kokonut with his great mate Dave Geyer, he’s crafting his own wines from old vines in the Barossa Valley.

The Turbo Lover Riesling fully illustrates his passion for this versatile grape, creating a wine full of flavour and character. 85-year-old vines in the Barossa see a short time on skins before a longer slumber on lees in old oak. Very far removed from the often shrill rieslings of SA, it is layered, plush and painfully delicious.
