Jim Barry / The Lodge Hill Riesling 2021
The concentrated flavor of lemon, passion fruit and lime spreads throughout your mouth with hints of guava, strawberry and rose.
Region: South Australia
Origin: Clare Valley
Variety: 100% Riesling
Winemaking: At 480m above sea level, this is one of the highest vineyards in the Clare Valley. This is the perfect vineyard for growing the mineral-rich Riesling that is unique to the area. This is one of the few regions in the world that produces a dry, delicate style of Riesling with less than 2g of residual sugar per liter.
The wine is a brilliant, very pale straw color, with a greenish tinge. The nose shows lovely floral characters, blossom notes, and pear/lime juice aromas. The palate is dry, with sharply focused tangy lemon rind and lime fruit flavors. Its chalky texture balances the steely crisp acid with a very long, limey finish. A wine to be enjoyed now or after it has aged gracefully.
Varietal: 100% Riesling
