SKU: CLAUHRIE24
The epitome of the Clare Valley. A riesling that sings on its own, the 2024 Urban Hymns shows length, weight and complexity that will only continue to improve with age. 2024 saw Claymore lucky enough to have access to fruit from the famed Gaelic Cemetery Vineyard, and blending this with a touch of their own 80+ year old Shankly Vineyard fruit, creating a song to remember.

Size

750ml

Wine Style

White - juicy, refreshing, light to medium-bodied

Palate

This wine resonates out of the glass with a zesty up front palate of natural acid and fleshy citrus. Experience the silky dance of pear and fresh apples and honeysuckle in the mouth that teases the tongue. There is, though, restraint to the flavour profile with promise of even greater things to come. The finish lingers with echoes of lemon sherbet and gentle texture.

Vintage

2024

Food Pairing

Vongole pasta with a lemon oil butter, layered with a healthy handful of fresh cut crunchy parsley. Or a minimalist approach of grilled blue swimmer crab with tangy yuzu dipping sauce.

”Small batch production. This has zip and energy. Tight focus and a sense of precision. Superb, grippy, talc-like minerality and a core of lime, green apple and grapefruit with faintest green almond characters lending detail. It's pent up and super racy, a stellar rendering of the variety with flavour, perfume, textural elements all on song. Right on.”
– Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
