Bright yellow in colour. Some TDN notes (kero) amongst the spicy citrus and mineral. The acid has diminished at 19 years and the palate has filled out. The previous Delectable note nearly 10 years ago (December 2014) said “ripping acidity “. 10 years cellaring saw that evolve into the lovely mature Clare Valley Riesling that it is today.

Clare was quite a gal in her youth, and she's not bad in her dotage. Lime green with lime on the nose; dry with good acidity, grapefruit and lots of herby notes.
Don't tarry to meet this Classic lady as she won't be around for long.
