Founded by Giles Cooke MW and Fergal Tynan MW, who also make the Thistledown wines, fruit is sourced from one vineyard in the southern end of Clare Valley, close to Auburn. Mature vines and a moderate season combined to ensure that the yields were very low and fruit concentrated. The grapes are picked in the cool of the morning and rapidly transported to the winery where they are lightly crushed and sent to press. Fermented at a cool temperature in stainless steel to retain fruit profile and the finished wine is aged on its lees for 2-3 months before bottling.
Tasting Note: Mouth-watering lime and elderflower character one expects from great 100% Riesling, the Courtesan has a voluptuous palate hinting at grapefruit, ripe melon and quince.
Food match: White fish, Asian dishes that include ginger, lemongrass and coriander.
