Naked Run Wines Place in Time Riesling 2017
- Light, aromatic
- Clare Valley
We don’t need to wax lyrical about Clare Valley riesling to you mofo. We’re pretty sure most people reading this would have had that moment where you get some in your glass, and you’re forced to ask why you ever drank another riesling. DJ, play ‘Hallelujah’, because we’ve just found the ultimate of ultimate rieslings. Naked Run Wines hold this beauty back for 4 years before release, meaning it’s only just hit the market. We’ve been teased for years now by this one after it won best in show awards in 2018 and 2021 at the Clare Valley Wine Show. We’re not going to keep blabbing, just look at the reviews and you’ll know what to do. Just get in before word spreads around the mofo office. Seriously, we’re not being dramatic.

James Suckling
“From an excellent vintage, this is concentrated and has such pure lime and lime butter, with gently toasty nuances, as well as lime peel. So fresh. The palate has beautiful detail and fine acidity that holds an elegant line of quite pure lime flavor. Acidity sizzles the finish. In a great place. Drink or hold. Screw cap.”

Riesling lovers need look no further. If there was ever a shrine to the rizza gods then it would be in the Clare. But go beyond the pristine, dry and steely whites that made the region world famous, and you’ll find some special reds worthy of attention. Shiraz and cabernet are among the frontrunners, with examples from Kilikanoon, Jim Barry, Leasingham, Tim Adams and Skillogalee regularly receiving top marks from Sir Halliday. There’s also some pretty smart grenache, cabernet franc and cabernet malbec coming out of the region too. So if you’re into plummy, well structured red wine styles, then you’ll find rich pickings here.
