{"product_id":"mount-horrocks-watervale-riesling-australie","title":"Mount Horrocks - Watervale Riesling - 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003eLocated in the Clare Valley region, north of Adelaide in South Australia, the vineyard that produces this wine is specifically in Watervale, a terroir renowned as one of the finest for Australian Riesling. The Mount Horrocks vines benefit from moderate altitudes, well-drained limestone soils, and a cooler-than-average climate, promoting slow and complete ripening of the grapes. The influence of cool nights and sunny days helps preserve a beautiful natural acidity and precise aromatic expression.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe grapes for Mount Horrocks' 2022 Watervale Riesling are hand-harvested from the single vineyard at Watervale, then sorted and gently pressed. The must is then fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks to preserve the aromatic purity and natural freshness of the varietal. Fermentation is carefully managed to maintain a dry and precise profile, followed by a short period of aging on fine lees in tanks, without oak, and then early bottling to capture the vibrant, citrusy, and mineral character of the Watervale terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003eripe lemon\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003elime\u003c\/strong\u003e , and \u003cstrong\u003egrapefruit\u003c\/strong\u003e , enhanced by delicate \u003cstrong\u003efloral\u003c\/strong\u003e touches reminiscent of jasmine and orange blossom, as well as a \u003cstrong\u003emineral\u003c\/strong\u003e dimension evoking wet stone and chalk.
