The 2025 Dead Man Walking Clare Valley Riesling is a vibrant and refreshing South Australian white that showcases the purity, intensity and zesty freshness for which Clare Valley Riesling is renowned. The nose is highly aromatic, revealing lifted lime, lemon zest and green apple aromas, layered with white florals, citrus blossom and subtle mineral notes.
On the palate, it is light-bodied with bright natural acidity and a crisp, mouth-watering texture. Flavours of lime juice, grapefruit and crunchy apple are balanced by chalky minerality and a clean, dry finish with impressive freshness and length. The style is energetic, expressive and highly approachable, offering classic Clare Valley Riesling character with immediate drinkability.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Riesling for customers who enjoy crisp acidity, vibrant citrus fruit and refreshing mineral-driven whites. Perfect with oysters, prawns, fresh seafood, Thai dishes, salads or goat cheese. Delicious now for its youthful vibrancy, or cellar over the next 5–10 years for added complexity.
