2025 Mitchell Kinsfolk Riesling x 12 bottles

The 2025 Mitchell Kinsfolk Riesling is a vibrant and beautifully modern Clare Valley Riesling crafted in a small-batch style that balances classic citrus intensity with added texture and savoury complexity. Produced by the multi-generational Mitchell family, the Kinsfolk range celebrates approachable, expressive wines while still showcasing the purity and mineral freshness that Clare Valley Riesling is famous for. The excellent 2025 vintage delivered exceptional natural acidity and concentrated lime-driven fruit, resulting in a Riesling with both immediate drinkability and impressive ageing potential.

The nose reveals lime zest, pink grapefruit and green apple layered with spring florals, wet stone and hints of ginger spice. On the palate, it is crisp yet softly textured with vibrant citrus acidity and a fine mineral line that gives the wine freshness and energy. Layers of lemon pastille, citrus blossom and subtle savoury notes unfold with balance and precision, finishing long, dry and beautifully mouthwatering with classic Clare Valley purity. Critics praised the wine’s “deep lime citrus concentration” and impressive texture, with Halliday awarding 93 points for its mineral tension and drinkability.
