When we find a treasure that our mofos love, we keep going back for more. Here’s the fourth vintage of this Clare riesling that we’ve featured and the first three were a roaring success. It comes from one of the rising stars of the region and hits all the notes you’ve come to expect. It’s bursting with citrus, minerality and texture. Riesling from Clare is renowned for its bracing acid line carried forth with vivid fruit. This one delivers all that and then some. Load up the cellar before it’s gone!

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.

An incredible opportunity, this taster's choice No. 53 Riesling is from a single vineyard of high quality from the Watervale end of the Clare Valley. Lemon and lime aroma with fine acidity structure and a good finish.

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

Alluringly aromatic! Blossom, crunchy green apple and the slightest whiff of talcum powder tempt you to give it another swirl. The layers then begin to open and subtle, underlying lemon pith and jasmine enter the dancefloor. A fabulous balance between fresh lemon juice and crunchy minerals provides a fleshy and lingering persistence to this wine. Seriously moreish - put it on repeat!

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.

This wine was always designed to bring new world and old world together. After going to Bordeaux to meet the team at Boutes Barrels, John worked with the Coopers, to design a barrel that would work for Australian Riesling. They designed a 1500L barrel, which has had minimal toasting, resulting in a long barrel, which would act more has a maturation vessel, compared to a barrel which would impart oak into the wine. 2017 Rieslingfreak No.1 is made in a style which is different from any other Rieslingfreak. The wine has been wild fermented in a barrel, where as John normally ferments in stainless steel and with cultured yeast. Rieslingfreak is the inspiration of John Hughes, a man who is very passionate about his rieslings. The first vintage of the brand was in 2009, with a single vineyard Clare Valley Riesling. Since then, the label has expanded to include Eden Valley and Polish Hill River regions. The brand philosophy is to represent the hallmarks of a single region with their iconic winemaking style. Each Rieslingfreak wine is allocated an individual number. This number represents not only the region in which the fruit was grown, but also the style and technical specifications with which the wine is made. Rieslingfreak is about providing consumers with a range of specially crafted rieslings embracing both different regions and styles. It is only released from vintages considered worthy.

This regional collaboration release, developed in partnership with selected local growers showcases Clare Valley Riesling at its best. We invite you, as we invited them, to 'walk this way' and sample the rewards derived from working together, across our special part of the wine world, to celebrate our regional hero!
