Clare Valley
Clare Valley is an Australian wine appellation located in South Australia, known for its distinct terroir characterized by rolling hills and a cool climate. The region's elevation, ranging from 400 to 500 meters, contributes to a diurnal temperature variation that aids in the development of acidity in grapes. Clare Valley is particularly recognized for its production of Riesling, which thrives in the region's slate and limestone soils. Other notable varieties include Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, which are also cultivated here.
Notable for dry Riesling and robust red wines
