Kirrihill Wines, Partner Series Riesling, 2022

The 2022 Partner Series Riesling from Kirrihill is a classic Clare Valley expression: bright, precise, and refreshingly dry. It opens with lifted aromas of lime blossom, green apple, and citrus zest, underpinned by hints of crushed slate and white florals. The palate is taut and linear, showcasing concentrated lime and lemon fruit with racy acidity and a clean, mineral finish that lingers beautifully.

Kirrihill sources this wine from select sites in the cool subregions of Watervale and Hill River, known for producing structured, age-worthy Rieslings. Crafted with cool fermentation and stainless steel aging to preserve purity, the 2022 vintage captures the variety’s hallmark tension and vibrancy. It’s ideal for enjoying young with seafood or Thai cuisine, but will reward careful cellaring over the next decade.
