Vintage: 2016
Wine Description:
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 Clare.
Situated on the eastern ranges of the township of Clare, Lodge Hill is one of the highest vineyards in the Valley - at an altitude of 480 metres - and is ideal for producing steely, minerally Rieslings, distinctive to the area.
Tasting Notes:
The wine displays a brilliant pale straw in the glass.
Lifted white floral aromas with lemon, limes and hint of spice on the nose.
The pallet leads with citrus and a silky line, wet slate and fresh ginger with juicy melon through the mid palate.
Finishing with a talk like minerality and juicy acidity.
