Description

  • Medium sweet style
  • Green apple & citrus
  • Honeysuckle
  • Balanced acidity

"A terrific offering; the richly fragrant bouquet shows apricot, orange peel, lime and subtle spice aromas, followed by a beautifully layered palate displaying excellent fruit power and persistency. It's wonderfully complemented by silky mouthfeel and vibrant acidity, finishing persistent and refreshing. Style: Off-dry. At its best: now to 2029" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2021

Distinctive nose of crisp green apples, honeysuckle and soft citrus aromas, this wine is full and luscious on the palate abounding in pip fruit and lemon/lime flavours. The sweet fruit characters are balanced by clean acid notes that complete a lovely well rounded drinking sensation. This is a medium/sweet style Riesling. Drink young and fresh through to 2030.

Single vineyard in the Moutere Hills region, these Riesling grapes are the oldest commercially grown Riesling vines in the South Island.

Hand-picked on the 31 March 2019. 2019 was a stand-out vintage for the Nelson region. Starting with a warm Spring, it continued on through a long, hot and very dry Summer and Autumn resulting in superb, clean, ripe fruit packed with intense flavours perfect for making sensational wine.

Kahurangi Estate is named after the stunning Kahurangi National Park on our doorstep. Kahurangi is a Maori word with a number of translations, two being “treasured possession” and “precious jewel”. The Mt Arthur Reserve Series showcases our premium ‘Reserve’ range of wines which stand out for their superior quality and structure.

Food Pairing: A perfect aperitif or enjoy with fragrant fish & prawn laksa.

Just what the label says it’s a classic Riesling. Not dry but dangerously delicious.
