The 2025 Miss Zilm Watervale Riesling is a vibrant and elegant white wine crafted in the classic Clare Valley style, showcasing the purity and precision for which Watervale Riesling is renowned. The nose is intensely aromatic, revealing notes of fresh lime, lemon blossom and green apple, complemented by delicate white florals and a distinctive mineral character.
On the palate, it is light-bodied with racy natural acidity and a beautifully focused texture, delivering flavours of lime juice, lemon zest and crisp Granny Smith apple layered with subtle chalky minerality. The finish is long, dry and exceptionally refreshing, highlighting the wine's precision, balance and youthful energy.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic Watervale Riesling for customers who appreciate crisp, mineral-driven whites with vibrant citrus fruit and excellent ageing potential. Delicious while young for its freshness, it will also reward careful cellaring over the next 8–12 years as it develops classic toast and honey characters. Best served well chilled with freshly shucked oysters, grilled prawns, sashimi, spicy Asian cuisine or light chicken dishes.
