Clark Estate Block 8 Marlborough Riesling 2022

Description

Apple, Blood Orange, Medium-sweet

"Delicately poised and elegantly fragrant, the bouquet shows Gala apple, orange peel and lemon zest nuances, followed by a succulent palate that's finely flowing with attractive sweetness backed by juicy acidity. It's mouth-watering with excellent balance and harmony. Style: Medium-sweet" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2023

"Aromas and flavours of lemon and lime, elderflower and white peach. In an off-dry style there’s plenty of energy as the wine touches the palate, contrasting acidity is vibrant and expands the flavours across the palate. A silky touch then structure and fruit flavours follow. Balanced and well made with best drinking from late 2023 through 2029" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

"Medium dry Riesling with lime zest, honey, apricot, lemon blossom and oyster shell characters. Good balance of sweet/sour flavours result in a pleasing tension. Good value at this price" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Real Review, Feb 2023

"Fresh, light and lively, it is a Mosel-like wine, with vibrant, citrusy, slightly peachy flavours, showing very good depth, gentle sweetness (43 grams/litre of residual sugar), balanced acidity, and a finely poised finish. Already very enjoyable, it's a drink now or a cellaring proposition" Michael Cooper

"Bright, even, pale yellow. The nose is softly fresh, with citrus, apple and blossom aromas. Light-bodied, medium-dry to taste, aromas of green apple, lime and mandarin adorned by blossom and a hint of honey. The wine is refreshing, with a good balance of acidity and sweetness, leaving a moreish finish" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Feb 2023
