  • Mineral note
  • Off-dry finish

"A wonderfully styled riesling; the elegantly fragrant bouquet shows nectarine, rockmelon, lime sorbet and floral aromas, leading to a beautifully focused palate that's flowing and persistent. It's delicate yet flavoursome with subtle sweetness backed by bright acidity, making it highly enjoyable" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jul 2020

An elegant wine bursting with flavours of mandarin and lime zest with a delicate grapefruit blossom and mineral note. Made in Germanic style, the natural residual sugar is balanced by firm acidity creating an off-dry impression.
This is a great Riesling to cellar for up to five years from vintage date (if you are patient enough), otherwise excellent drinking now.

Food Pairing: Enjoy on its own as an aperitif or with Asian spiced pork

This is my absolute favourite daily drinking wine. Lower alcohol, slightly sweet (which I like, but I know others don't) and full of flavour. I love it!!

Very pleasant, sweet start and dry finish. Lovely bouquet with a nourishing hint of kero. Surprised me considering the price.
