Jim's son Peter and grandson Tom are the master craftsmen at this multi-awarded winery, known particularly for sublime Riesling and Shiraz. This bottling is a familiar face on the UK high street and a great-value buy. It's classic Clare in flavour: steely, crisp and vibrant, packed with tangy lime, jasmine blossom and nectarine sweetness on the finish.
