Kilikanoon, Clare Valley (South Australia) Riesling 2019

 Although newer vintages of this wine have been released, Riesling lovers are well-advised to seek out the 2019 bottles that are still available — and better for their extra time in bottle.  This is a lovely and complex dry Riesling from a superb estate in the Clare Valley of South Australia.  The bouquet is forward and enticing with an array of lime, tangerine, green and red apple fruit aromas followed by hints of fresh flowers and subtle spices.  Fresh, clean and dry on the palate, its layers of fruit are underlain by a rich texture and the intriguing floral and spice hints that linger at the finish.  It’s a perfect choice for Riesling lovers wanting to sample the best New World examples of this great grape. Delicious now with its 4 years of age, the Kilikanoon Killerman’s Run Riesling will provide excellent drinking for another 2 to 3 years and more.
