Tim Adams Riesling 2019

“(…)  gorgeously fragranced…”

“A triumph of a challenging drought year, Tim Adams’ legendary Riesling is gorgeously fragranced with white flowers and loaded with pristine lemon, kaffir lime, apple and white pepper.  It holds impressive persistence and presence.  With dry season concentration and structure, this is a vintage to drink young.”
Tyson Stelzer, WBM, September/October 2019

“Best Buys $30 and Under”

“A pristine, spotlessly made Clare Valley riesling scented with lavender, lime juice, lemon sherbet and apple skin. Long and chalky, its tangy, citrusy and pear-like palate is wrapped in a bright, lemony acidity, finishing with great drive and an artful balance between fruit, texture and acidity.  As ever, exceptional value and cellaring potential.”
Jeremy Oliver, Gourmet Traveller Wine, February/March 2020

“Top Drops”

“It’s always a joy when the first young Clare rieslings appear in bottle a few months after vintage each year, especially when they’re as lime-juicy and as slatey-dry as this one.”
Max Allen, Gourmet Traveller Magazine, September 2019

“Excellent intensity of flavour. (…).”

“Excellent intensity of flavour. Lime, bath salts, a whisper of florals, chalk. Both region and variety strike straight at you and in a good way. There’s the burst, and then there’s a tightening, and then there’s a lingering dryness. It sets sail for now as much as it does for the future though no doubt it will cover both.”
Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front, August 2019

“(…) a Clare Valley classic…”

“That this wine was so good was apparently a triumph of solid vineyard management over adverse conditions.  The resultant drywhite shows hallmark citrus (mainly lime) and floral flavours, and on the palate bracing acidity.  Like our Wine of the Week, this is a ClareValley classic that will develop lovely complexity with maturation in the cellar…”
