2024 RockBare The Clare Valley Riesling - We source from select vineyards within the Clare Valley. These sites have slightly different characteristics which, when blended, give rise to a nice complexity. The 2024 vintage began wiith a relatively dry winter and early spring, followed by a wet period up until Christmas. The rain was fortuitous, topping up the soil moisture ahead of a dry growing season, providing close-to-perfect ripening weather for Riesling.

Very pale lemon colour. Lime blossom and papaya aromatics. Light and fresh, tropical fruits with a splash of lime juice sit at the core, saline notes add a depth to it while racy acidity keeps it ultra bright and fresh to the finish. - 91 points, Stuart Knox

About the region

South Australia · Clare Valley

South Australia grows more wine than any other Australian state, and its subregions behave almost like separate countries. Barossa and Eden Valley give Shiraz and Riesling, McLaren Vale leans to Grenache, Clare Valley to dry Riesling, Adelaide Hills to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and Coonawarra to Cabernet on red terra rossa soil. Strict quarantine has kept phylloxera out, so some vineyards still work vines planted in the nineteenth century.
