Jim Barry Assyrtiko
Jim Barry Riesling
As a young wine the 2017 Jim Barry Watervale Riesling won gold at two prestigious wine shows - Sydney and Adelaide. So popping a quality riesling into our cellaring prgramme didn't take much thinking about. After 5 years we have the pay-off. The wine still remains vivacious but is now filling out and displaying toasty, lemon butter notes, and a lime blossom nose. Other distinguishing features are the clarity of crystalline flavour and the softness of the acidity. Along the way there's a gentle phenolic note that adds textural interest. Drink now and over the next 2 years.
Riposte Wines 'The Scimitar' Riesling
Slices of citrus and floral notes abound on the nose of the 2019 Scimitar Single Vineyard Clare Valley Riesling complimenting a palate of lingering fresh lime and lemon flavours and finely balanced acid.
Riposte The Katana Chardonnay
The grapes used to craft The Katana Chardonnay were handpicked, chilled overnight, and whole bunch pressed. The juice was rough settled, and transferred to French oak barriques for fermentation. This process led to the creation of a pale straw coloured wine with golden yellow highlights along the edges. This wonderful Chardonnay presents a supple core of citrus blossom and white stone fruit characters, enhanced by mineral notes. The juicy palate contains flavours of bright fruits and French oak supported by crisp acidity, ending in a lively and captivating climax. This alluring white wine can be enjoyed within 5 years from vintage. Drink it with potato soup, roasted vegetable pizza, and chorizo and sweet potato risotto.

Mitchell Riesling
Produced from 40 year old vines in the Clare Valley's renowned Watervale district this superb Riesling shows vibrant citrus fruit on the nose with deep minerally flavours and a crisp lingering finish.
