Description
The 2024 was "Wonderfully appealing" (Halliday) with FOUR Trophies, including the one for BEST Wine of SHOW at the Clare Valley Wine show. This 2024 has just won a Best Dry Riesling Trophy at the C;are show plus high scores up to 94pts.
“A Riesling that is true to style and region, sourced from around Leasingham, where there are, and have been over many years, some of the finest Rieslings in the country made. The aroma is a lemon pith, tart lime, and slightly minerally combination, and the palate shows a typical tension, and yet there is a deep intensity. The generous fruit flavours are tightened by the crisp acidity, which focuses and extends the palate. That crunchy, pebbly minerality on the finish is a feature. 94pts” (Ray Jordan, WinePilot).
For Campbell Mattinson, calls it “… a frisky Riesling, and a long-flavoured one, with lime juice and lime leaf flavours floating into bath salts, florals, rust and steel. Both freshness and length are its best friends, courtesy of its long, lean, scintillating flavour profile.
For Gary Walsh, The Wine Front “It’s all ripe lime and tangerine with a gin and tonic sorbet flavour, citrus zest with slightly green acidity…”
Penna Lane is located in the beautiful Skilly Valley, 10km south of Clare, with Peter Treloar and Steve Baraglia heading the wine team.
