'The 2019 Riesling Kick-on Ranch Clone 239 is fabulous. It offers up an intriguing mix of rich tropical notes and intense mineral accents. Beguiling and wonderfully complex, the Clone 239 is endowed with notable depth, gravitas and complexity. Lemon confit, dried flowers and passionfruit build effortlessly in a gorgeous Riesling from Graham Tatomer.' - Antonio Galloni, October 2022
