'Lavender Hill' Riesling

A contemporary taste and look for Jim Barry Lavender Hill Sweet Riesling

Submitted by Olivia Hoffmann on Tue, 05/04/2011 - 4:08pm

To celebrate the launch of the 2010 Lavender Hill Sweet Riesling, Peter Barry and his family hosted a twelve course degustation lunch at Neil Perry's Spice Temple in Sydney on Friday the 25th of March. Sixty guests from mixed media and the trade enjoyed twelve delicious Asian courses, perfectly matched with Jim Barry Wines Rieslings.

"Lavender Hill" Sweet Riesling 2010

For a refreshing drink on a warm afternoon, try mixing half a glass of sparkling mineral water or soda water, with half a glass of Lavender Hill over ice, and a squeeze of lemon or lime.

Sight: 
Pale straw yellow with green tints
Smell: 
Lifted aromas of honeydew melon, pink grapefruit and lemon butter
Taste: 
A vast array of fruit flavours- poached pear, lychee, guava, hints of wet slate. A welcoming, yet reserved natural sweetness. Finely balanced with some lingering mineral acidity
Time: 
A wine made to be enjoyed upon release with family and friends and could benefit from short term cellaring
