Riesling with presence and poise. \u003c\/em\u003eClonakilla Riesling 2025 is a textbook expression of Murrumbateman’s highland terroir\u003cem\u003e—\u003c\/em\u003ecool climate, decomposed granite, and a producer with deep roots in the region. First planted in 1971 by John Kirk, Clonakilla has grown into one of Australia’s most respected family wineries. Their Riesling is an annual highlight, and in 2025, the conditions aligned for something special: steady warmth, well-timed rainfall, and pristine fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis release delivers a striking mix of purity and power. Bright citrus, ripe green apple and subtle florals lead into a taut, mineral-driven palate. There’s real structure beneath the freshness, with the kind of length and energy that promises a long life ahead. Drink it now for lift and clarity, or cellar for a decade to watch lime and toast characters unfold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e NOSE\u003cbr\u003e – Floral and zesty\u003cbr\u003e Subtle white florals meet ripe apple, citrus oil, and crushed stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePALATE\u003cbr\u003e – Linear and intense\u003cbr\u003e Lime and orange zest with a racy acid spine and flinty texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFINISH\u003cbr\u003e – Persistent and poised\u003cbr\u003e Tonic-like minerality and citrus length echo long after the last sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003e“This is super young, obviously, but it has a weight and a power and it’s going to turn out to be something. It’s floral in an exotic way, shows notes of orange in with its general lemon-and-lime, and has a slate-like, tonic aspect tucked neatly into its core. This wine is still sorting itself out but presence, power and length are key features.”\u003c\/em\u003e – \u003cstrong\u003eCampbell Mattinson\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Wine Front\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Style - White Wine\u003cbr\u003e Varietal - Riesling\u003cbr\u003e Country - Australia\u003cbr\u003e Region - Hilltops, NSW\u003cbr\u003e Vintage - 2025\u003cbr\u003e Bottle Size - 750ml\u003cbr\u003e ABV - 12%\u003cbr\u003e Closure - Screwcap\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clonakilla","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44894341726399,"sku":"CKRIES-25","price":38.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/5174\/9311\/files\/d9277762-9c9b-4b77-b312-ff3db2fd9b16.png?v=1768334566","url":"https:\/\/cbdcellars.sydney\/products\/clonakilla-riesling-2025","provider":"CBD Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
