Description
- Medium-sweet style
- Meyer lemons
- Sweet mandarin
- Firm acidity
"This is gorgeously composed and refined, showing Granny Smith apple, nectarine, lime peel and jasmine aromas with a hint of spicy complexity. The concentrated palate delivers fine flow and juicy fruit flavours with subtle sweetness and beautifully pitched acidity. Splendidly elegant and fabulously appealing. Style: Medium-dry. At its best: now to 2030" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
An elegant wine bursting with flavours of Meyer lemons and sweet mandarin 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.
Located from a single vineyard in Marlborough’s Wairau Valley this block enjoys high sunshine hours and the older alluvial soils sees a relatively slow ripening phase giving good flavour concentration, distinct citrus and mineral notes.
Food Pairing: Enjoy on its own as an aperitif or with Asian spiced pork.

Even though it is a sweeter style, I love this wine! It's always my "go to" to relax at the end of the day.
