Damon Koerner grew up in Watervale, surrounded by vines, and his wines reflect both that deep connection and a drive to do things differently. He’s not interested in making cookie-cutter Riesling - his take has more texture, more detail, and a bit more attitude, while still holding onto that electric Clare Valley freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one comes off the family’s Gullyview and Parish vineyards, including vines planted way back in 1923. The winemaking is stripped back - six hours on skins, wild fermentation in steel and ceramic amphora, and ten months on fine lees. No fining, no filtering, just a tiny bit of sulphur before bottling. It’s got all the drive and precision you want from Watervale Riesling, but with more layers, a little grip, and a whole lot of personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProperly delicious, properly interesting - a Riesling that’s as much about feel as it is about flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Texture, vitality, length, drinkabilty… Really delicious.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead More\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e2024 Koerner The Hills Chardonnay\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDamon Koerner has built a loyal following by treating South Australian fruit with a light, thoughtful touch, and this white shows what they're all about. Taking top-shelf fruit from cold, high-altitude blocks in Lenswood and Gumeracha, this is a charming Adelaide Hills Chardonnay that marries raw energy with clever, low-fi winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of heavy oak or excess additions, Damon lets the juice ferment in old French oak puncheons before sitting on its lees for ten months, then finishing up in stainless steel. The whole process keeps the fruit feeling alive while giving the wine a lovely, savoury texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt hits the glass with a brilliant, flinty grip and a slight natural haze. You get punchy citrus pith, charred nut skins, and a flickering sea-salt line, all backed by a chewy, textural weight that keeps you coming back for another splash.

It adds an extra dimension of appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCase in point is this Pigato Vermentino from Koerner wines in the Clare Valley. Vermentino was planted around 10 years ago on the family vineyard in Watervale, a pocket on Terra Rossa soils selected as best for this variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine spent 20 days on skins in open vessels during fermentation before being pressed back to steel to age for 7 months. Bottled without filtering or filtration.
