Description
- Off-dry style
- Green apple & lime
- Subtle jasmine
- Underlying minerality
"This is immediately enticing on the nose with green apple, lemon/lime zest and apple blossom aromas, leading to a finely weighted palate that's juicy and linear. Beautifully composed and elegant with a hint of sweetness and splendidly balanced acidity, offering terrific drinking. Style: Off-dry. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2022
Intense aromas of green apple and sweet lime zest, with a hint of jasmine. This elegant Riesling displays bursts of limes and mandarins with an underlying minerality and acid drive on the palate. The fruit flavours give a sweet impression which finishes off dry.
The grapes were harvested from select vineyard sites predominantly in Marlborough’s Awatere Valley at the peak of flavour development in the cool of the evening. Each parcel was fermented separately at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks in order to retain the varietal characters and freshness.
Food Pairing: A lovely aperitif wine to have on its own or a fabulous match with Cajun cuisine.

Fortunately this is nice and dry - even though the 10.5% volume is different to the level I thought I was purchasing from the website description.
