2012 Kilikanoon 2012 Killerman's Run Clare Valley Riesling

Great Year and Great Place for Riesling. While this is good, it is not as lush as some Rieslings I've had lately. This is a mixture of vineyards, although that has not meant less-than-good in Rieslings I've tried lately.

This is gooseberry in perfume and tart citrus on the palate. But a beautiful, clear, almost opalescent pale gold in colour.

The Kilikanoon is a distinct label: you always recognise the star and circle-rim caps lettering.

I recently tried a Shiraz which I'd recommend first before this Riesling.

Kevin Mitchell = winemaker.
