Aromas of lemon, grapefruit juice, brown lime and white flowers combine with a lick of mineral and wet slate on the nose. The palate is refreshing, with flavours of grapefruit and citrus rind with a white floral lift. The fruit weight shows the hallmarks of Watervale Riesling with zesty acidity, that gives line but still allows a sense of generosity.

This aromatic, medium-bodied wine features zesty lime, fresh rock melon, and green apple flavors. These elements combine seamlessly with natural acidity, leading to a clean and savory finish. Fiano, a grape variety increasingly recognized in Australia, stands out for its compelling texture, varietal expression, and aromatic complexity. Ready to drink now and enjoy with dishes reminiscent of Sicily, such as prawn risotto, fennel and orange salad, or grilled sardines. "Cracking Fiano... terrific drinking." Ken Gargett, Wine Pilot Contemporary and drinkable, Gudilly is sustainably made, and with the next generation in mind. Siblings Angus, Digby and Sally, each share their father Simon Sorby Adams’ passion for quality wines that can also make life fun. Their Gudilly label – a mix up of their names – is a blend of classic and emerging varietal wines made from single vineyards in the Adelaide Hills, Adelaide Plains, Barossa, Clare Valley, Eden Valley and Riverland regions of South Australia.

The fruit is from a Kirrihill owned vineyard in Watervale called “Slate Creek”, planted in the 1970’s. As you guessed, the vines are sitting on slate, which gives incredible results, the fruit has great concentration of flavour and minerality on the palate. The 2025 season was excellent for Riesling, we are super happy with how the wines are shaping up. The vines maintained very healthy canopies throughout the dry summer, and the vineyard team kept up with consistent and generous irrigation to meet the perfect ripening conditions. Picking at cool temperatures and quick transportation will avoid picking up colour, oxidation, maceration and therefore loss of quality, flavour and acidity.
