Description
A blend of Moccandunda (next to Hanlin Hill), Gully View (classified as Watervale, south of the township) and Milburn (also classified as Watervale, however north of the township). Peach flesh, with strong lime and lemon zest on the nose, the palate with voluminous fruit mid, think white flesh, mild feijoa and passionfruit (largely a function of the 25g/L RS). The bright acidity draws the wine to a succinct close, almost with a dry like appearance. This is a lovely Clare Valley Riesling.
Established in 2006 with eye catching labels and but most importantly eye catch production on a small scale. Hand-picking in small lots, indigenous yeast fermentations, basket pressing and no filtration. The Punks (aka Col, Jen & Nic) source fruit from all over South Australia and the wine is made principally at the Adelina winery.
Clare Valley
One of the great wine regions of Australia. Known for its boney, citric Rieslings that build flesh with bottle age – a classic Australian style. It can also make some lovely Shiraz and Cabernet.
Riesling
One of the world’s most noble varieties and known transmitter of terroir. Riesling is an important variety for quality wine production although only makes up approximately 4% of the planted area. Wonderful wines are found in Germany, Austria, Alsace and Australia. They can be as dry as any wine you’ll taste or super sweet and luscious. It is a wonderful grape. See more about Riesling here.
