Jim Barry The Lodge Hill Dry Riesling 2008

Clare Valley, South Australia, AustraliaLodge Hill vineyard has now been in the Barry fold for more than three decades and the quality of the riesling is reflected by this experience. Set on Clare's eastern ranges the fruit lies at 480 metres above sea level. The relatively cool site contributes to this wines bright steely style and big citrus mineral flavours flecked with bits of strawberry, limes and oranges and a dry finish. You can drink this now or hold a decade it is your choice. Excellent quality.Tasted: 13 September 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
