New packaging heralds the scintillating 2022 Riesling release. This is talc-y and pretty, with a lemongrass spice character woven through the mid-palate and finish. Like all good Clare Rieslings, it manages a balance between fleshy and tense with aplomb, the texturing phenolics the icing on the cake.

(South Australia) Orange blossom, tropical fruit, stone fruit and floral perfume. Rich and exotic style with good weight and balance. Seamlessly integrated mineral acidity and a floral finish. Delicous, complex and mulit-dimensional. Alc: 13.5%.

The medium straw-colored 2008 Riesling offers up a fragrant, floral-scented nose along with notes of mineral and lemon-lime. Intense and concentrated on the palate, it has the balance to evolve for at least 3-5 years and should drink well through 2020. Skillogalee is a small, family-owned winery that began in 1976. The property sits at 480 meters, one of the highest vineyards in South Australia. Importer: CLD Imports, Barrington, IL; tel. (847) 898-9500
