Wine

O'Leary Walker Wines Watervale Riesling draws from a dry grown vineyard at Watervale in the Clare Valley. The soils are red loam over limestone – classically Watervale.

The fruit is handpicked and each batch of fruit is kept separate in stainless steel tanks. Once destemmed, the grapes are crushed and gently pressed, resulting in a fine cut of free run juice.

The free run juice is chilled and settled, then racked off solids and seeded with yeast. A cool, temperature controlled ferment follows, lasting up to 14 days. The wine is chilled and filtered prior to bottling.

Pale straw green, O'Leary Walker Wines Watervale Riesling has intense citrus notes, refreshing natural acidity and a perfectly balanced finish. Cellaring potential is 15 years.
