This is a one-off, blink-and-you-will-miss-it, opportunity on a limited production small batch release with the expected bling that befits a super premium Clare Riesling. This renowned Riesling producer has a few tiers in their arsenal but this wine was crafted to highlight the very best parcels from the outstanding 2024 vintage, blending fruit from the Gaelic Cemetery region in White Hut with that of the 80 year old Shankly Vineyard. The resultant wine speaks for itself:

Small batch production. This has zip and energy. Tight focus and a sense of precision. Superb, grippy, talc-like minerality and a core of lime, green apple and grapefruit with faintest green almond characters lending detail. It's pent up and super racy, a stellar rendering of the variety with flavour, perfume, textural elements all on song. Right on.
