James Suckling Review
Rated 94
Super-bright and youthful with tons of lime and garden-herb freshness, this is a sleek but very polished Clare Valley dry riesling that needs a bit of time to open up. Steely long finish with pronounced minerality. Drink or hold.
Wine Tasting Notes
The aromatic profile of Jim Barry Lodge Hill Clare Valley Riesling is truly captivating. Upon first sniff, one is greeted with an explosion of finger lime juice and pink grapefruit, accompanied by the refreshing scents of wet slate and orange blossom. On the palate, the dominant flavor is that of sweet grapefruit flesh, complemented by the zesty notes of mandarin juice and freshly cut lime. As the tasting experience unfolds, the presence of aromatic quince becomes apparent. The wine's structure is supported by a backbone of slate and minerals, while the finish is marked by a delightful burst of citrus flavors.
