Description
The Paul Cluver Riesling 2024 vintage shows opulent fruit aromas and vivid expressions on the palate due to the warmer weather Elgin experienced in January of this year. However, the wine accurately displays typical Riesling varietal character with notes of honeysuckle, winter-melon, orange blossom and lime zest. Structurally the wine exudes typical Riesling tension with its startlingly acute balance between sweetness and acidity. A mineral core, linked to the shale rich soils in which the vines grow, adds great complexity and a lingering finish.
