Description

  • Off-dry style
  • Stonefruit
  • Orange blossom
  • Juicy

Pale golden. Vibrant citrus aromas are complemented by stonefruit notes, lime leaf and delicate orange blossom florals. A juicy and generous wine, with layers of citrus and stonefruit. Ripe acidity provides balance and contributes texture and weight. The finish is long and refreshing. Drinking beautifully now, will continue to  develop over the next five years.

The fruit for this vivid Riesling was sourced from The Mound Vineyard in the Waipara Valley. Gravelly loams over alluvial subsoil in the Waipara region offers minerality and  structure.

Overall conditions were good during the 2023 season. Warm weather during  flowering provided a great start, though this is in stark contrast to the ripening period, which was much cooler. Despite these conditions, the fruit was picked ripe, clean and full of  delicious flavours and bright acidity.

After delivery to the winery the grapes were gently pressed. Once pressed, only the free run juice was settled and fermented with a range of yeasts at cool temperatures for three weeks. The  wine was then racked off lees and chilled for three additional weeks before blending and bottling.

Food Pairing: Crispy pork spring rolls with sweet chilli sauce.
