Leo Buring
A national treasure, Leo Buring has for decades been a benchmark brand noted for the excellence and longevity of its riesling from the Eden and Clare Valleys in particular. Founded by German-born winemaker Paul Leopold (Leo) Buring, whose experience had seen him work for companies like Spring Vale, Minchinbury and Lindeman, it is no longer associated with a wide range of wides, but is today a specialist riesling label. While the brand has lost its visibility in recent years, those in the know always look to its riesling collection since they still act as an industry benchmark. Do not be deceived by their (lack of) price or brand presence - these are very fine wines indeed.
