2008 LEO BURING CLARE VALLEY RIESLING $24.95 REGION: CLARE VALLEY, SOUTH AUSTRALIA "Yet again, riesling makes Australia look like the Lucky Country, and the 2008 South Australian vintage has delivered us all an unexpected bonus. This classic regional expression reveals restrained aromas of lemon rind, stone fruit, herbs and yellow flowers. Luscious, juicy and concentrated, its pleasing length of fruit is underpinned by a fine, schisty texture, finishing long and austere with a fresh, vibrant acidity." Jeremy Oliver, Gourmet Traveller Wine - Best Buy Wines $20 and under  "A bracing and clean bouquet leads into a classic Clare palate with citrus and mineral components in exact balance; will repay extended cellaring . Screwcap. Drink Now – 2018." James Halliday - 93 points "It smells of bath salts and white lillies, citrus zest and fresh lemon and the palate is tight and highly acidic, bone dry and flinty with squeezed lemon and lime juice and a long tart, but juicy finish. It's a very good, if not rather austere Leo Buring Clare - I might even be under-rating it. Regardless, drink next summer and over the next couple of years, or pop it in the cellar and drink 2013 onwards. Drink : 2009 - 2013+." Gary Walsh, Winefront Monthly - 92 points "A fine, lean style with floral notes, spice and lots of limes. Nice persistence and good acidity but the focus is the zippy lime characters. Will age well mid- term." Ken Garnett – 91 points "At only 11.5 per cent alcohol and almost bone dry, this riesling is on the lean, tight, acidic side. It's a great wine now for masochists and lovers of minerally acidity and it will blossom with some bottle age." Greg Duncan Powell, The Sydney Morning Herald Drink Now to 2018
