Description

  • Dry style
  • Apricot & pear
  • White florals & spice
  • Fresh acidity

"Charming and elegantly fragrant, the bouquet shows green pear, apricot, citrus peel and white floral aromas, leading to a beautifully rounded palate that's ripe and supple. Smooth and fruit expressive with a lingering refreshing finish. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2022

Pale straw. Bright florals with apple and pear notes underscored with a fresh herbal seam with compliments of spice. The wine has ripe fruit flavours, rich texture and fresh acidity.

The grapes for this wine were grown in the Wairau and Awatere Valley’s of Marlborough. The Awatere fruit provides freshness and acidity and the Wairau fruit a riper flavour spectrum. A a long, cool autumn and modest yields made for the perfect conditions to create mouthwatering flavours in this classic Mount Riley wine.

We harvested the fruit during the night in cool temperatures so that the natural flavours and aromatics were preserved. The grapes were gently pressed and the juice settled prior to fermentation. The wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to retain the bright, varietal aromatics.

Food Pairing: Great with white meat, veal, Asian food, and cheeses.
