Pikes ‘Traditionale’ Riesling 2024, Pikes Wines, Clare Valley, South Australia. This benchmark Clare Valley Riesling from Polish Hill River and select estate sites bursts with ripe Meyer lemon, classic lime cordial and peach confectionary on the nose, laced with jasmine florals, white blossoms and fresh pastry lift. The palate thrills with green lime pithiness, green melon fleshiness, lemon-lime intensity, lemongrass vibrancy and chalky minerality, all coiled by bright acidity for impeccable balance and length.​

Generous yet structured, the Pikes Traditionale Riesling 2024 delivers fleshy fruit generosity with pristine freshness and tension – an approachable icon that cellars beautifully for 10+ years while shining right now. Pair this electrifying white with fresh oysters, Thai papaya salad, pan-fried whiting or creamy goat’s cheese to unleash its zesty, harmonious brilliance.​
