Jim Barry Lodge Hill Museum Release Riesling 2011, Clare Valley
Bright gold with subtle green highlights, showing excellent clarity and graceful maturity. The nose is beautifully evolved and remarkably fresh, opening with preserved lime, lemon curd and toast layered with delicate honeyed notes.
On the palate this is tightly focused and incredibly persistent. Layers of lime marmalade, citrus peel, honeyed peach and wet stone minerality glide across a textured frame. The acidity remains bright and driving, creating remarkable tension and balance between maturity and freshness. The finish is long, savoury and deeply complex with lingering citrus and mineral honey intensity.
A stunningly aged Clare Valley Riesling that showcases outstanding purity, tension and exceptional longevity.
Vino Masters Score: 96 / 100
