The Watervale vineyard is composed of red loam over limestone soils. The site is west facing with vines being dry grown. The vines are pruned hard and the grapes hand picked. The underlying limestone holds the moisture over the hot summer months.

Another outstanding result from O’Leary Walker.

Bright straw colour with pale green hue. Lifted nose, with floral tropical fruit and lime top notes. The palate displays flavours of lime over lemon followed by orange and mandarin on the back palate. Crisp acid backbone. Orange and mandarin aftertaste with lime persisting.
