Miss Zilm Riesling 2022

Share

I always look forward to tasting Riesling from the Watervale subregion of the Clare Valley, the chilly nights bring a distinct perfume and fragrance I adore, all of which can be found here. Lemonade icy poles, kaffir lime, chalky minerality and a succulent tidal wave of acidity. This 2022 also offers a powdery grip on the finish that carries hints of fresh fennel, lime pith and crushed marble. A wine for greeting friends with and toasting over oysters and sashimi platters.
