Olssens Of Watervale Clare Valley Riesling 2018

Straw with a lime green edge. Intense aromas of freshly cut lemon and lime with orange and whites peaches. Subtle hints of freshly picked lemon grass and grape fruit. The palate is finely structured with intense and citrus fruit flavours of tangelo, orange and desert lime, with passion fruit highlights. The wine has impressive length and a natural acid backbone, and has a mouth-wateringly finish. Will drink well now and over the medium term.

Olssen of Watervale Clare Valley Shiraz 2017

Deep purple with crimson red edge. Lifted spicy aromatics, with mulberry and Satsuma plum providing the pure core and hints of mint and black olive giving further complexity.  Lifted berry fruit flavours of mulberry and Satsuma plum, this shiraz has a bold, concentrated structure with wonderful depth and balance between natural fruit sweetness and tannin. Notes of black olive, earth and cloves give further complexity to the round warm palate.

Olssen of Watervale The Olssen Six Clare Valley Red 2017

Black with currant red flashes. Fragrant nose displaying sweet red berries with plum and mulberry highlights. Spicy and fruit driven with freshly cut plums along with dark cherry flavours. Soft, savoury tannins and good acid add structure and length to this voluptuous wine. Well-integrated oak provides the perfect backbone with tannins and acid all melting into one another.

The fruit was picked, destemmed and crushed before fermentation in Potter fermenters. The juice was racked and returned once a day for 2 weeks and at sugar dryness the skins were pressed and the wine was then transferred to tank and Malolactic fermentation was induced, once the malo was complete the wine was returned to oak were it aged for 18 months.

Carefully selected parcels of fruit were selected from the Watervale region in the Clare Valley. We picked in the evening and decided to macerate over night and crush the fruit early the next morning. The wine was fermented in older French barrels, and left to age in oak before we selected only the best barrels of the vintage for inclusion in the final six blend then the wine was blended and bottled with minimal fining or filtration.
