Knappstein 2008 Hand Picked Riesling (Clare Valley)
- Best Buy
- $15
Captivating, with zesty lemon and wet stones on the nose, followed by a complex medley of citrus, passionfruit and carnations on the palate. The wine finishes well, with punchy notes of lime marmalade and dry chalk. Try with smoked trout. Drink now for its vibrant fruit or lay down for a few years for more honeyed depth.

Knappstein 2004 Enterprise Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Clare Valley)
- $40
Heavily extracted and heavily oaked, this Cabernet starts with a rush of vanilla and cedar, then backs that up with tobacco and cassis. It’s practically chewy in the mouth, ending with coffee and additional cedar flavors.

Knappstein 2003 Enterprise Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Clare Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $40
This is a full-bodied, well structured Cabernet, with plenty of intense cassis fruit tinged with minty, herbal overtones that give it a slightly medicinal cast. Give it 2-3 years to develop additional complexity, then drink it over the next 7-8 years.

Knappstein 2006 Hand Picked Riesling (Clare Valley)
- $15
This is a sturdy, muscular Riesling. Although it starts off with some deceptive floral—lilac—aromas, its assertive apple and lime flavors flow relentlessly over the palate. Powerful and intense, it nevertheless finishes clean and refreshing, making it a solid counterpoint to richly sauced fish dishes.
