SKU: CLAJTRIES22
The Claymore Joshua Tree Watervale Riesling 2022 offers a generous bouquet of bright lemon and lime blossom, fresh cut dew-melon and orange. The aromatics are subdued in youth yet become more expressive with time in the glass. On the palate, flavours of citrus florals welcome the palate to an explosion of bright and tight acid – giving the wine its characteristic Watervale tangy lemon and lime blossom bouquet. The cooler conditions of the 2022 ripening season producing wonderfully bright all natural acid Riesling. Delicate and yet powerful. The finish is moreish with gently textural, slate and chalky acidity elements and moderate length which will develop further with time in bottle. Sourced from our estate dry grown Watervale vinyeard. This free run only Riesling showcasing the best of Watervale.

Wonderfully structured with excellent tension and persistency. At its best: 2025 to 2040”
