Description
"This is seriously good and offers terrific value. Pristine and elegant, the bouquet shows lemon sorbet, floral, fresh apple and a touch of flinty notes. The palate is concentrated and linear, and delivers focused mouthfeel with whispering sweetness which is perfectly balanced by racy acidity, making the wine mouth-wateringly attractive. At its best: now to 2020." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2016.
Intense aromas of mandarin and citrus entwined with floral notes and a hint of spice. This elegant Riesling displays bursts of limes and orange with an underlying creaminess on the palate. The fruit flavours give a sweet impression which finishes dry.
The fruit for this wine comes from Marlborough vineyards with free draining alluvial soils of moderate
fertility. The fruit was picked in the coolest part of the day at the peak of flavour development.
Drinking beautifully now this is a perfect wine for enjoying at lunchtime or with light meals and matches well with fish or pork dishes.
