Pear, apple, lemon, slate and hints of peach. Great acidity and minerality.

Lovely balance. Ripe but plenty of zing. Drank looking out over Manly beach with a bit of grilled snapper. Perfect!

Hello Mr. Jim Barry! Recently we got stuck into this 2017 Watervale Riesling from the Clare Valley (SA) which went down... very easily at $16 a bottle.

It’s a very pale lemon colour on the eye. The nose is floral, fruity and vibrant with a hint of musk sticks. In the mouth it’s full of juicy pear and lemon & lime flavours. It’s dry, crisp and clean.

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! #tcweekdaywine
