SKU: CLAJTRIES25
Claymore are privileged to be custodians of some truly old vine riesling (planted in the 1930’s) as well as more youthful parcels dating back 20 to 30 years. All of the riesling vines are located in the Watervale growing region and Joshua Tree is crafted from the best parcels across three sites. The warmer southern sites contribute floral notes and the northern Shankly vineyard show greater fruit weight and acid balance.

Palate

This wine takes you on a soulful journey, carried by exquisitely fine natural acid. A citrus crescendo of pure lemon pulp intensity rises, wrapped in the unmistakable minerality of Watervale’s chalky soils. The finish reverberates, echoing grapefruit and a distinct freshness with a lingering softness—like the final notes of a ballad, fading but never forgotten.

Food Pairing

Cured salmon on dark rye with tangy herbed mayo.

”Some of the vines used for this very youthful but delightfully fresh Riesling from the Watervale sub-region date back to the 1930s. Pale lemon in colour, this is beautifully perfumed, with notes of lemon curd, spices, florals and grapefruit. A fine line of minerals and river stones in the background as support. There is fine balance and bright acidity, which runs the full journey. Enjoy over the next ten to fifteen years. Stunning value.”
