Empire of Dirt Valkyrie Aromatic White Field Blend 2021 from Geelong is a bright, no‑oak white that’s all about lift and refreshment, blending Pinot Gris, Riesling, Sémillon and Viognier into one seriously smashable, coastal‑feeling package. This Empire of Dirt Valkyrie 2021 is picked in the cool of morning, fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel and bottled young to lock in fruit purity and a racy citrus line.

In the glass you get a pale, glistening straw colour with aromas of citrus blossom, lime, green apple, white pear and gentle tropical hints, backed by jasmine and a whisper of wet stones. The palate is light to medium‑bodied, ultra‑fresh and zippy, driven by juicy citrus and crunchy orchard fruits, with a touch of talc‑like minerality and a clean, mouth‑watering finish that keeps Valkyrie Aromatic White Field Blend 2021 feeling bright and effortless.

Empire of Dirt Valkyrie Aromatic White Field Blend 2021 is a natural fit with Coffin Bay oysters, prawn tacos, grilled fish or simple salt‑and‑pepper squid, where its acid line and freshness really sing. It’s also delicious with summer salads, soft cheeses, Vietnamese or Thai dishes and grazing platters, the wine’s perfumed lift and crisp texture cutting through herbs, spice and creamy elements without ever feeling heavy.
