🍷 Appearance
Very pale straw with green highlights. Brilliant and crystalline, reflecting purity and precision from a cool Clare Valley vintage.

👃 Aromas
Highly perfumed and refined, with intense lime zest, lemon and citrus blossom.
Delicate white florals, hints of jasmine and a fine mineral edge give the wine lift and elegance.

👅 Palate
Taut, focused and powerful, delivering pure lime, lemon and grapefruit flavours.
The palate is driven by precision and intensity, with layered citrus, subtle stone fruit and a strong mineral core.

🍈 Texture & Finish
Linear and tightly structured with “coiled acidity” providing incredible drive.
The finish is long, dry and penetrating, with citrus and stony minerality lingering with great persistence.

🍇 Overall Style
A benchmark Clare Valley Riesling—precise, powerful and built to age.
Combines purity, intensity and finesse, showing both immediate appeal and exceptional cellaring potential over decades.

🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with fresh oysters, sashimi, grilled prawns or spicy Asian dishes. Also excellent with goat’s cheese and light, citrus-driven cuisine.

🥂 BBD Verdict
One of Australia’s great Rieslings—pure, intense and seriously age-worthy.
Perfect for mixed dozens where you want a flagship white that delivers world-class quality now and will reward patience in the cellar.

Cheers
