Wine Description
Crafted by Neil Paulett, Roseworthy College’s 109th winemaking graduate, this exceptional Riesling reflects over 50 years of experience and showcases what Pauletts does best. Bursting with vibrant citrus and delicate floral notes, it also reveals elegant secondary characters of toast and marmalade. A true expression of Clare Valley’s regional and varietal charm.
