Two old champions of Clare Valley riesling cross paths at the Royal Sydney Wine Show

Jim Barry Wines 2010 Lodge Hill Riesling last night (Monday 17 February) won the 2011 Douglas Lamb Perpetual Trophy, awarded annually at the Royal Sydney Wine Show for the best wine in Class 23 — dry-style riesling, vintage 2010 and older.

"The Lodge Hill" Dry Riesling 2011

Jim Barry purchased 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, it 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.

Sight: 
Crystal like clarity. Straw colour and green hues.
Smell: 
Rich and lifted. Lime Citrus, pink grapefruit and a hint of spice.
Taste: 
Supportive of aromas. Zingy natural acid backbone, with flavours of mandarin, white peach and strawberry.
