RIPOSTE BY TIM KNAPPSTEIN The Scimitar Riesling, Clare Valley

The hallmark of Tim Adams' Pinot Gris is the balance between flavour sweetness and acidity. Nashi pear, green apple and tropical fruit aromas lead into a full-flavoured, rich and textured palate.

In true Leo Buring tradition this is another quintessential Clare Valley delight. The wine is perfect drinking as a fresh lively style and it will blossom and grow in stature as it ages.

Rhythm Stick Wines are artisan Riesling producers that have a single minded approach to making terroir driven Rieslings from the heart Australia's most celebrated Riesling region, the Clare Valley. Their Red Robin Riesling is made by Clare Valley icon, Tim Adams, and is simply bursting with freshness and vitality. Minerals on the nose, followed by zesty citrus characters on the palate all accompanying a superb length and fine acid structure.

Fragrant aromas of orange blossom and citrus peel entice you to taste the soft and mouth watering flavours of this lovely delicate Riesling.

The fruit for this wine was sourced from the famous Watervale region off the Castine family Golf House vineyard. A classic dry style of Riesling with provocative lime, lemon and floral aromas. The tantalising citrus flavours on the palate harmonise well with the refreshing acidity, finishing with good length of flavour.

Gomersal Wines is nestled in the heart of the Barossa Valley and embraces the district's traditional approach to winemaking. This Riesling combines lifted aromas of lychee and citrus undertones with crisp pear, lemon and lime flavours, producing a balanced wine with complexity and length.

Fresh, crisp and dry as it always is upon release. Finishes clean and dry with just a hint of textural grip.

Slices of citrus and floral notes abound on the nose of the 2019 Scimitar Single Vineyard Clare Valley Riesling complimenting a palate of lingering fresh lime and lemon flavours and finely balanced acid.
