I love the pristine and vibrant nose of pink grapefruit, passion fruit and lime zest that pulls you inexorably into this super-racy Clare Valley dry riesling that leaps and bounds over the palate, then shoots off into outer space at the very long and energetic finish. Only just beginning a very long life. A milestone for this producer! Drink or hold. Screw cap.

The Skilly Valley sub-region of Clare lies on the Western side of the region. The soil is sandy clay-loam over a broken quartz, producing bright lifted aromas of orange blossom and hints of flint. The palate is citrus with some peach and tropical notes, followed by a very characteristic minerality. With crisp and electric acidity, the palate is left refreshed and eager to continue.
