Clare Valley, South Australia. 14.5%, screwcap
A bit old-fashioned, with noticeable added acidity. The back label notes “none of the fruit used to make this wine has been irrigated with River Murray water” – good on them. Though this doesn’t particularly taste like a Clare wine, nor show the class of the cool 2002 vintage. There are riverland wines of this style and quality.
