About Shut The Gate Riesling 750ML
Shut The Gate Riesling opens with a luminous, pale straw hue and an expressive bouquet that immediately signals Clare Valley's hallmark intensity. On the aroma, vivid lime zest and crushed slate leap from the glass, followed by delicate white blossom and a whisper of green apple. The palate is precise and tightly wound, delivering a laser-like line of citrus acidity that carries fresh lemon curd, lime juice, and a touch of nectarine through to the mid-palate. A distinctive minerality — almost like wet stone or crushed gravel — adds depth and complexity. The finish is long, clean, and refreshingly dry, with a lingering citrus zest and flinty mineral echo that is quintessentially Clare Valley in character.
