Pikes, “Traditionale” Riesling, Clare Valley 2023

This release marks the 37th vintage of Pikes Riesling and is one of the best of the last decade.

Refined, concentrated yet delicate, and perfectly in balance. A true reflection of the cooler vintage, this wine will stand the test of time.

Colour
Brilliant pale straw with green hues.

Aroma
Bright expressive aromas of perfume, citrus blossom and fresh lime dominate with a talcy/mineral note evident. All the hallmarks of an excellent vintage.

Palate
Crisp acid driven wine, plenty of fresh lime and other citrus flavours. More delicate than recent years, the balance of palate weight, acid and barely-there sweetness creates a seamless and lengthy finish. Delicious.
