Written Notes

Something of a project wine for next generation Barry boys Tom & Sam Barry, this Riesling started as an exceptional parcel from the Lodge Hill vineyard, with the grapes picked and then pressed without filtration and 10% barrel fermented. All was then left on gross lees for six weeks before bottling.

Light and lemony, it’s a surprisingly delicate wine in context, balance of limey fruit and acidity is excellent. Less chubby than some of the other Jim Barry Rieslings, but not quite as perfumed. Still has a healthy dash of lemongrass a little ginger though. Tight and long, the palate is where all the fun is, with grip and textural weight. Good stuff. Best drinking: 2015-2025+. 18/20, 93/100. 12.5%, $35. Would I buy it? Worth a punt on a bottle of this for sure.
