Description:
The Jim Barry Spring Farm Block 114 Riesling 2013 is a refined, single-site Clare Valley Riesling known for its purity, precision, and age-worthy structure. It typically shows vibrant citrus and green fruit character when young, evolving with bottle age into more complex notes of lime marmalade, toast, honey, and mineral depth. The style is dry to off-dry with high natural acidity, giving it excellent freshness even after years of aging.
Food Pairing:
Grilled seafood, fresh oysters, Thai cuisine, sushi, light chicken dishes
