September 2018 (Wine Show)
Summary:
To our surprise and dismay, we have yet to visit Jim Barry. But we’ve had enough of their wines to tell you they are one of Australia’s best and most reliable wine producers. Jim Barry makes a fantastic suite of even-tempered red wines, but when it comes to Riesling, the case could be made that they are Australia’s foremost producer. We don’t think you’ll ever go wrong with a Jim Barry wine. Most recently, we were absolutely smitten with their Florita Riesling (review just below).
* Jim Barry Wines Florita 2018 Riesling – Real, real promise is achieved in this glorious wine. Deep, powerful, and alive. Layers of thick and appealing acidity carry a cornucopia of pristine Riesling flavours. . A truly pure Riesling. If this doesn’t make you believe in the varietal, nothing will. $50
