2022 Clonakilla Riesling

Brilliant water like colour with lime green tinged edges. Intense lime juice, lemon and green to red apple aromas are trailed by some wet steel and chalky talc like notes. Racy and focused, a zippy line of acidity underpins concentrated lime and lemon fruits. Red and Granny Smith apple, subtle orange and steely mineral characters complete a crunchy finish. Long, tense and zingy aftertaste.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.

Other Reviews….
The clarity of the flavour here is quite something. Apple, fresh and intense, red and green, meets slate and chalk, a touch of steel too. It has both drive and flavour but it also has texture; not overt but enough to slow the wine down on its way through your mouth, like stones and branches in a stream, helping everything to settle and sink in. The tinge of green to the hue here is another quality marker. I especially like that this wine has all the persistent you could wish for, but also has some body, some flesh. Drink 2022-2034+

Striking aromas of spring blossom, crisp pears and mandarin orange aromas make this stand out in the Australian riesling crowd. Sleek, but with a lovely creamy texture on the mid-palate and serious mineral freshness at the long, wet stone finish. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Spring garden aromas of jasmine, lemon blossom and herbs make this vibrant riesling very enticing. The palate is a burst of juicy fresh lime and mandarin, lemongrass and grapefruit pith with tangy acidity, yet enough lemon-curd texture to flesh it out. Mouth-watering and refreshing now (its perfect for summer) but will easily sail into the next decade. Drink by 2032.
