It has since become the best known bottle in their range and the largest thing they produce, which tells you something about how well the variety has taken to the red clay and limestone of Watervale in the Clare Valley.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKoerner Wine was established in 2014 with a simple brief: make wines that taste of where they come from, with as little interference as possible. The fruit here spends around twenty days on skins fermenting in open vessels, is then pressed back to stainless steel and left to settle for roughly seven months before bottling. That extended skin time is what gives the wine its grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is textural and thoroughly moreish. Lemon and grapefruit pith, green almond and a slight herbal bitterness are wrapped around a saline, chalky core, and the finish is dry and persistent. Serve it well chilled with seafood, fried food or anything you would reach for a squeeze of lemon with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVintages may vary.

This one comes from the Koerner home block at Hazeldene in Lenswood, high in the Adelaide Hills, where Damon and Maddy Koerner live alongside their winery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKoerner Wine started in 2014 and has built a following on transparent, minimal intervention winemaking. The Savagnin is made in the crisp, fresh style rather than the Jura's flor aged tradition, with the emphasis firmly on preserving the aromatics and natural acidity the site delivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpect a bright, savoury white. Sea spray and citrus lead, backed by white stone fruit, green apple and a subtle nutty note, with racy acidity carrying a long, mineral finish.

Koerner's version draws on the family's Gullyview vineyard alongside fruit from the Parish site, with blocks planted as far back as 1923 and others in 1973. Gullyview sits on red clay over limestone while Parish is red clay over slate and ironstone, and the combination gives the wine both flesh and cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDamon and Maddy Koerner established Koerner Wine in 2014, working across the Clare Valley and their home block in the Adelaide Hills. Their approach is deliberately hands off, built around fruit quality and letting each site speak clearly rather than shaping it in the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is classic Watervale Riesling. Lime juice and lemon blossom lead, with green apple, a hint of talc and a distinctly chalky mineral thread running underneath. The palate is bone dry and tightly wound, with piercing acidity and a long, crisp finish. Lovely now with seafood or Asian food, and it will reward a decade in the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVintages may vary.

This is their Adelaide Hills bottling of the variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKoerner Wine began in 2014 and has become one of the most followed small labels in South Australia, largely on the strength of a philosophy that puts fruit quality first and keeps the winemaking transparent. The Chardonnay is handled gently and made in a restrained style, with the aim of texture and drive rather than obvious oak or worked richness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is fresh and finely drawn.

The fruit comes from the original 1973 plantings on the family vineyard at Watervale, on a south facing slope where only a thin layer of clay loam sits over solid limestone. That rock is the whole point of the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than the stainless steel and early bottling that defines most Clare Riesling, this is fermented and aged for around nine months in a thousand litre ceramic amphora, allowed to go through full malolactic fermentation, then racked to steel where it rests on fine lees for a further nine months. Damon and Maddy Koerner have made Koerner Wine's name on exactly this kind of transparent, low intervention approach since starting out in 2014.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe extended élevage builds a Riesling with real texture and breadth. Lime and grapefruit are joined by beeswax, dried herbs, ginger and a deep, chalky minerality, while the acidity is softened just enough to let the palate spread.

This wine ferments naturally in open steel tanks, hand plunged twice a day, and stays on skins for three weeks. After pressing it spends a year in French demi-muids and a further couple of months in steel before being bottled without fining or filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe style is medium bodied and structured rather than heavy. Dark berry and cassis fruit is framed by cedar, dried herbs and a fine gravelly tannin, with a savoury, velvety texture and impressive length.
