About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of RieslingClare Valley, Australia2008 was a unique vintage in that it is one of the rare recent vintages where Leo Buring produced two Leonay Rieslings; one from the Eden Valley and this one from the famous Riesling region of the Clare Valley and specifically the sub-region of Watervale. When tasted upon release, this vibrant iconic Riesling was chock full of lemon zest, minerality and lime juice notes; a haven for acid lovers. With over 5 years in bottle, this gorgeous aromatic white is now singing with notes of talc and almon

Light bodied white wines have a water-light mouthfeel. Often very pale to light colour.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

In the mouth very tangy, explosive and almost painfully intense. Tight and extra dry with mouthwatering acidity and flavours of lemon juice in water, fresh squeezed lime and a distinct slatey aspect…
