Description
The 2024 O'Leary Walker Watervale Riesling is a beautifully elegant and lively wine, showcasing all the hallmarks of Clare Valley’s distinctive Watervale sub-region.
O'Leary Walker Wines, established in 2000 by acclaimed winemakers David O'Leary and Nick Walker, brings together over 50 years of winemaking experience. Their commitment to premium South Australian sites has produced some of the country’s best Rieslings, and this Watervale bottling is no exception. Sourced from dry-grown vineyards with classic Watervale soils of red loam over limestone, the grapes are hand-picked and undergo a precise, cool fermentation, resulting in a wine that beautifully expresses the terroir.
Expect a vibrant expression with lemon, lime, and floral notes, underscored by a fresh minerality and a clean, lengthy finish. The 2024 vintage is poised to age gracefully but as always with the Watervale cuvee, is equally inviting right now for those who want to rip the cap off right away.
A sensational value Riesling that will age beautifully, but is oh-so enjoyable to drink right now!
