Jim Barry ‘The Lodge Hill’ Riesling 2021/22, Clare Valley

Jim Barry purchased the land for The Lodge Hill vineyard in 1977 as he was sure it would produce some of the best Riesling in the Clare Valley. The plot sits high above sea-level. Grapes here are exposed to concentrated sunlight and cool nights which encourage gradual, slow ripening. The process helps retain the key characteristics of Riesling – fresh acidity and plenty of citrus. Come harvest time, gentle pressing preserves those natural flavours. The end result is mouthwatering. Dry, crisp and full of lemon, lime and grapefruit. Delicious alongside fresh seafood.
