2022 Clonakilla Riesling

WINEMAKER: Tim Kirk
REGION: Canberra District, NSW
VARIETAL: Riesling
VITICULTURE: Sustainable/Organic

Murrumbateman’s cool, continental climate and decomposed granite soils are perfectly suited to Riesling. 2022 was another classic Riesling year with plenty of rain when we needed it and a long, cool ripening season. Drink now for its fine floral, citrus-edged fruit or cellar for up to 15 years and watch it develop lime and toast characters with age.

Established by John Kirk in 1971, Clonakilla is a truly iconic estate and benchmark producer for the Canberra District region. Their Shiraz Viognier is arguably one of the most important wines in the country. It's always a good day when these wines arrive in the shop.
