Watervale

A historic village along the Riesling Trail, famous for the 'Watervale Riesling' grown on limestone soils.

This small village, which took shape in the 1850s, sits among vineyards planted on limestone and red soils that are considered the source of the Clare Valley's most classic Rieslings. Several family wineries have cellar doors near the village. The village has an old hotel, stone shopfronts and the former site of a 19th-century saddlery. It is a peaceful, rural spot that makes a good lunch stop for cyclists riding the Riesling Trail.
