I had the pleasure of sampling several Jacob’s Creek Reserve wines at a recent tasting and the 2010 Jacob’s Creek Reserve Barossa Dry Riesling was among them.
I’m a huge fan of Rieslings, especially dry ones, so was excited to try this Australian Riesling. In the glass, the wine is pale with a hint of green. On the nose, it’s light and fresh with green apple and lime On the palate, this Barossa Valley wine it’s a bit more Sauvignon Blanc than I’m used to for a Riesling, but really enjoyable. The lime from the bouquet carries over and is paired with Meyer lemons and crisp acidity on the long finish.
Around $17.
