Tasting Notes
Riesling from a single vineyard in the Clare Valley has been picked during the cool valley night to help preserve the crisp fruit freshness and natural acidity.
This Riesling combines lifted aromas of citrus fruits, floral notes and lychee undertones with crisp lemon and lime flavours, producing a balanced wine with complexity and length.
Enjoy now, on it's own or with your favourite seafood or Thai dish.
