Tasting Notes
Aroma
Our Clare Valley Riesling is bright and fragrant,
with classic fresh cut lime & lemongrass notes,
alongside a subtle hint of wet slate.
Appearance
Pale straw, with a light green hue.
Palate
Floral and refreshing , blossom and zest of
lime dominate the palate, with secondary
notes, akin to the pastry case of a lemon tart.
This is derived from the lees contact and helps
to complex and balance the mid palate. The
wine is crisp and dry, with a beautiful zing of
grapefruit like acidity to its’ finish.
Vinification
We were up bright and early harvesting in
early March, bringing the grapes in during
the cooler part of the morning, and taking
them for pressing at a winery just down the
road. This practice ensures freshness upon
delivery and avoids any unnecessary pickup of
phenolics from the skins. The juice is clarified,
and then fermented in stainless steel at a nice
cool temperature to ensure a lovely long, even
ferment. The wine is then left on yeast lees, and
stirred often over 4 months to build texture on
the palate before bottling.
Vintage Notes
A warm, dry
2025 season in Clare brought early budburst,
rapid ripening and one of the earliest harvests
on record. Yields were reduced, but fruit
quality was high, with Riesling showing bright
acidity and strong flavour concentration.
Overall: low rainfall, early picks, excellent
purity.
Food Matching
A big bucket of king prawns whilst sitting on
the coastline, or perhaps a lovely rich Thai beef
curry.
