Amisfield Central Otago Dry Riesling 2023
Description
- Dry style
- Delicate pear
- White florals
- Succulent acidity
Beautifully aromatic with white florals, delicate pear and apple dew drops offer an enticing nose. The palate dances seamlessly between juicy fleshy kaffir lime and honey comb, with succulent citrus acidity providing a layer of structure and poise. Fermentation in large format oak cuve creates texture with minerality of site expressed.
Planted in the upper reaches of Blocks 1 and 10, these vines grow in stony Lochar gravel overlaid by sandy loam.
A gentle winter and spring allowed ideal conditions for strong budburst and blossoming until December. Low frost and wind contributed to robust vine health, yielding a remarkably lush canopy. Extreme heat and low rainfall between December & February meant the vines struggled with water stress but grape ripening still tracked well. We anticipated an early harvest, however, temperatures moderated, and a cold March realigned us with historical norms. Harvest was marked with intermittent weather events, slowing us down, but allowing the team the opportunity to be more attentive to their picking of impeccably clean, high-quality fruit across the estate.
