Tax included.
Low stock - only 3 items left
The McAskill Riesling is made in very limited volumes, sourced predominately from a small block planted in the year 2000 that consistently produces Riesling of outstanding character and quality.
The McAskill range consists of small volumes of the highest quality wine sourced exclusively from the Gaelic Cemetery Vineyard located in the well known sub region of White Hut. Named in honour after John McAskill who donated the land next door to our vineyard in 1860 to be used as a cemetery for the Gaelic speaking Scottish pioneers of the Clare Valley.
Tasting notes
The appearance is brilliant pale straw with vibrant green hues. Like previous years, aromatics are in the fresh green lime spectrum with subtle perfume notes. The palate is built around structure and elegance, not distinctively fruity but more in the slatey, chalky profile with underlying lime notes. Polished and refined, this wine can be enjoyed in its youth but long term cellaring will reward those with patience.
