The Clare Valley is one of Australia's oldest wine regions. The higher altitude (400-500 meters) compared to other South Australian regions produces cool summer nights, allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and evenly. Renowned for crisp dry Rieslings with classic floral aromas, with flavours that are typically that of lemon and lime which can develop into notes of tropical fruits in warmer seasons. Also renowned for its distinctive shiraz, full bodied, with nice natural acidity and a eucalyptus and menthol punch.
Like a decadent meal life is better paired with wine. Sunday afternoon barbecues paired with a robust Shiraz, a hot summers day paired with an icy glass of Riesling, or a smooth Shiraz Merlot blend after a hard days work. Whatever occasion life throws at you make sure you have the perfect wine to pair with that special moment.
