Clare Valley Riesling is as distinctive in style as Waipara is. Dry, citrus laden and an ability to age, developing turpentine notes as it ages. This is a new addition to the Paulett range, coming from their vineyards across the Clare Valley.
Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"Pale straw green in colour, an aromatic wine that displays orange blossom, brown lime and other citrus themes, some tropical fruit notes sit underneath. Vibrant and juicy on the palate this wine shows generous amounts citrus fruit along with some lemon sorbet and tropical fruit. Natural balanced acidity provides length and drive, with a clean, dry refreshing finish."

98/100 Winestate Magazine (2021 Vintage)
"Pale green straw. Lifted aromatics of citrus fruits and orange blossom with tropical notes and underlying stone fruits. Juicy vibrant flavours of lemon, lime, grapefruit and tropical fruits. Generous balanced natural acidity that lingers on the palate, gives freshness and length."
96/100 James Suckling (2021 Vintage)
"Intense lime and flinty flavours here with pithy lime peel too. Smells concentrated. The palate confirms that with explosive lime and apple flavours. Acidity is a feature and the flavours run so long."
