Almost cumin spiced top note over lemon barley, lime and lillies. Intense acidity and burst of lemon/lime flavour, firm chalky texture, a sort of lavender perfume wafting in the finish, but it’s mouth-watering in the main, and quite powerful. Good wine this vintage, though I’d say it needs a couple of years to soften.
94 points. Gary Walsh, The Wine Front November 2016

Notes
2016 clos Clare Museum-Release Riesling is another fabulous mature offering from the Barry brothers to coincide with the scintillatingly brilliant 2021 clos Clare Riesling. This was Tom and Sam Barry’s ninth vintage from clos Clare’s Riesling patch, adjoining the historic ‘Florita’ vineyard in Watervale. The 46-year-old dry-grown vines were hand-harvested on the 21st of Februrary and taken to The Wilson Vineyard at Polish Hill River, where they were chilled for 24 hours prior to whole bunch pressing and vinification.
The nose displays aromas of Granny Smith apples, lemon thyme and mandarin. The palate has finesse, generosity and structure, with flavours of finger lime, blood orange and star fruit.
