Description

- Luscious mouthfeel
"Elegantly composed and delicately fragrant with lime cordial, crunchy apple and white flesh nectarine characters on the nose with a hint of floral overtone. The palate displays excellent focus and tightly structured mouthfeel, wonderfully complemented by subtle sweetness and vibrant acidity. Stylish and beautifully poised. At its best: now to 2030" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
This wine has fruit driven aromas of fresh lime, lemon zest and aromatic citrus blossom. The palate shows layers of delicious Meyer lemon with ripe mandarin characters, leaving you with a fresh and luscious mouthfeel.
This 2023 W5 Riesling is bursting with citrus characters. With a medium sweet style, the fruit for this wine was sourced from select vineyards in the Wairau Valley area of Marlborough. The fruit was harvested when the fruit reached a desired level of fruit flavors balanced with excellent acidity. At the winery, the grapes were pressed immediately and transferred to tank. The juice was fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks to enhance the powerful aromatics. The fermentation continued until the wine had reached the perfect level of residual sugar and clean acidity, resulting in a deliciously clean and expressive 2023 Riesling that is also vegan friendly.
Food Pairing: An aromatic Riesling with high acidity and medium sweetness pairs beautifully on its own or with lightly spiced Asian cuisine. We recommend Asian spiced pork with a crispy noodle salad.
