Penna Lane Hillside Clare Valley Riesling 2024

Oh, wow. First nose and you know you’re in the Clare Valley. Punches out those distinctive notes of lemon and floral minerals that capture everything that’s good about this wonderful Riesling region. And then the palate delivers a beautifully expressive interpretation of this variety. There’s texture here, but it’s all delicate and subtle. And that fine, tense, minerally acidity threads through to carry the palate to a lingering, persistent finish. There’s a crunchy vibrancy here with spicy lemon flavours and a little bit of that chalky minerality. Terrific wine. Love drinking it now, but it has potential.
