Description
The Skilly Valley sub-region of Clare lies on the Western side of the region. The soil is sandy clay-loam over a broken quartz, producing bright lifted aromas of orange blossom and hints of flint. The palate is citrus with some peach and tropical notes, followed by a very characteristic minerality. With crisp and electric acidity, the palate is left refreshed and eager to continue. Cellar 10+ years
