Knappstein Wines is a respected winery located in the renowned Clare Valley in South Australia, a region celebrated for producing some of the country’s finest Riesling. The estate has a long history dating back to the 19th century and continues to combine tradition with modern winemaking techniques.
The Clare Valley benefits from a unique climate with warm days and cool nights, ideal for preserving freshness and acidity in the grapes. Riesling is the flagship variety, known for its purity and ageing potential, alongside other varietals such as Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Knappstein wines are known for their clarity and precision. The Rieslings typically show aromas of lime, green apple and citrus blossom, often developing characteristic notes of minerality and subtle kerosene with age. The wines are crisp, vibrant and capable of long-term cellaring.
