Jim Barry Florita Riesling, 75cl

Jim Barry stands as a prominent figure in Australian wine history, with the renowned Florita Vineyard serving as a testament to this legacy. Planted with Riesling grapes in 1962, the vineyard became a part of the Barry family's portfolio in 1986 - while the inaugural release of their premium Riesling occurred in 2004. Meticulously chosen rows, where terra rossa and loam soils thinly veil the profound limestone beneath, produce vines that exude a wonderful elegance.

Embracing a philosophy of minimal intervention, the production of Florita Riesling aims to let the wine authentically mirror its unique and historic origins. This wine, characterised by its remarkable purity and drive, unfolds with vibrant aromas of lemon, lime, and citrus blossom. The palate, tightly wound and marked by laser-focused acidity, reveals a core of crisp lime juice, showcasing all the distinctive qualities of Florita Riesling.

Best served chilled, Florita Riesling proves to be an excellent companion to spicy or fragrant dishes, such as those found in Indian or Thai cuisine. It also complements the flavours of fragrant grilled lamb, seafood, and shellfish, making it an ideal choice for a diverse range of culinary pairings.
