Pale green in appearance with typical Clare Valley Riesling citrus characters of lemon and lime on full display along with some attractive floral notes.
This wine comes from three different blocks on the vineyard and our intention is to make a wine in the modern Australian Riesling style – crisp, dry and fresh.
95 Points James Halliday
If you drink this wine with fresh seafood on a summer day, it is quite possible you won't notice its secret message. It only makes its presence felt on the aftertaste - glittery, chalky acidity - on the way through to this, lemon/lime/green apple fruit will have been the focus of attention. Great stuff.

The Wine Front
Lavender scented, lime and lemon, and lemon verbena. It’s juicy and straight-down-the-line in style, and despite the low alcohol, does carry richness and flavour. Some sour tang and citrus peel character, pretty good finish, but presents, perhaps appropriately, in a no-nonsense kind of rugged way. Good drink.
91 Points Huon Hooke
Dusty floral, powder-puff aroma, talcum powder, the palate soft and clean, crisp and spritely. Acid drives it. A very good wine, suited for cellaring
90 Points Toni Patterson
Dainty aromatics of bath salts and scented blossoms. The palate is lemony and spicy; crisp and refreshing. Admirable purity and length. It shows its best alongside food
