Annie's Lane Riesling

ABV 12%

Clare Valley This Riesling is crafted from fruit sourced from vineyards in the Clare Valley in South Australia. These vineyards include the famous Carlsfield and Sevenhill vineyards. Carlsfield vineyard, planted in 1935, produces fruit with intense lime characters whilst the Sevenhill vineyard, planted in 1978, produces fruit with finesse and steely character.

Winemaking

The grapes were crushed and drained with only the delicate juice being retained. This juice was then fermented cool after a settling period to retain varietal character and freshness.

Cellaring

Impressive length and natural acidity will allow for graceful aging over the next 5 to 8 years.

Suggested Food

Enjoy as an aperitif or as the perfect accompaniment to fruits de mer..

Annie Wayman was a legend in the Clare Valley. She could always be relied upon to bring along sandwiches and a warm drink to harvesters and pruners at the turn of the century. One evening Annie's horse and cart became bogged in a lane adjacent to one of the valley's best vineyards. Thus, Annie's Lane was named.
