About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of RieslingClare Valley, AustraliaThe story of Riesling in Australia is as old as the wine industry itself. The famed Florita Vineyard is synonymous with the classic grape variety and was established by Leo Buring in 1962. In 1986 the Barry family acquired the 80 acre property and began to write the next chapter in the famous vineyard’s history. A wine of immense drive and purity, the palate displays powerful, pure fruit with great length of flavour.

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

The power and depth of this wine exceeds all the other Jim Barry wines on the market today. Rose's lime juice and mineral are welded together in multiple mouthfilling layers. It will continue on this trajectory for years to come.
