"Quite a rich, weighty, dry style riesling with lime, toast, mineral and a suggestion of floral flavours. The wine has an appealing texture, good concentration and a lingering finish. A stylish riesling that's accessible now but will age well" Bob Campbell, Mater of Wine, Real Review, Jul 2017
The nose is aromatic, full of floral and citrus notes. On the palate the wine shows jasmine and honeysuckle alongside lemon and lime citrus. This Riesling shows good length and ends on a refreshing vibrant mineral finish.
The 2015 Riesling is a single vineyard wine from the winemakers Winsome block. The growing season furbished us with mild ripening conditions. This combined with the rich clay soils and beautifully exposed fruit has given us an elegant floral and lemon dry Riesling with a wonderful mineral finish.
The grapes were hand harvested at optimum ripeness on the 5th of April. These were de-stemmed and crushed to the press. The wine fermented in stainless steel tanks using organic yeasts which carried out a long cool ferment, retaining the vibrant fruit characters.
Huia Riesling is delicious with fresh oysters and scallops, sushi, whitebait fritters, Asian food, pasta with fresh tomato in a white wine sauce and firm fruity cheeses.
