Claymore Superstition Watervale Riesling 2024

The fruit here is from a single vineyard located in the Watervale sub-region of the Clare Valley, from vines in excess of 80 years of age. Only free run juice is used. Claymore purchased the vineyard, some thirty acres in total, in 2015. A near transparent lemon, the nose gives us an appealing and typical Clare mix of grapefruit and limes. Quite spicy, with a flick of honeysuckle as we move along, everything is well supported by a minerally backing. Vibrant acidity and with excellent length, the wine is finely balanced and will drink beautifully for at least the next decade. Impressive stuff and we can expect it to develop into something even more so.
