Mr Mick Riesling

Description 

Generous lemon and lime juice with a lavender perfume characterise this wine, made in the classic Australian style with just a touch of residual sweetness to balance the crisp natural acidity. It is a pristine wine with generous length of fruit flavour, a great example of the atypical but nevertheless outstanding vintage in the Clare Valley. 

Winemaking Notes 

Riesling grapes were harvested at their peak flavour maturity from vineyards through the central and northern Clare Valley. After destemming and must chilling, the juice was separated from skins, clarified and fermented for 14 days at relatively low temperatures. The use of ‘free-run’ juice only ensures continuation of the true Mr Mick style: crisp, pure and fruit driven. 

Food Pairing 

A wine best enjoyed now, on its own or with fresh seafood.
