2000 Reillys Watervale Riesling
We have re-released this wine in 2019, ahead of its 20 year anniversary to celebrate our 25th vintage making wines in the beautiful Clare Valley!
The fruit for this wine was sourced from our viticulturist Rob Symth's vineyard in Watervale, the very same vineyard that has been used to create our Watervale Riesling for every subsequent vintage up to 2019 and counting.
As a young wine, it showed delicate florals and citrus with crisp natural acidity, and it is this balanced acidity that allows Riesling to age so gracefully in the bottle year upon year.
As an aged wine, rich flavours of toasty honey have developed with subtle citrus notes still showing on the palate.
There are very limited quantities remaining of this wine which is only available for purchase via our website and Cellar Door.

“This aged beauty makes marigold look like wallflowers. Vibrant gold in colour, it begs for patience. Take your time swirling the sunset in your glass. Savour the comforting, toasty aromas, and pause to pontificate over luscious honey and lemon flavours. The years have not wearied her; they’ve simply added charm.”
