Description

"Pristine and gorgeously elegant, showing white flesh nectarine, green rockmelon, jasmine and lemon/lime peel aromas. The palate delivers fine focus and silky flow, beautifully complemented by subtle sweetness and bright acidity, finishing persistent and juicy. Style: Off-dry. At its best: now to 2030" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jul 2022

"Intense, lifted varietal nose with spritzy aromas of lime essence, orange peel, and grapefruit marmalade with hints of spring onion flower and beeswax. Pure, fleshy, tasty and full-flavoured with grapefruit and green apple flavours, zesty freshness, excellent weight and a lingering finish. A wonderful, multi-layered, wine with complexity and balance. Great drinking" NZ Wine Rater

The deliciously delicate Landmark Riesling is beautifully floral, with punchy fresh lime zest and stone fruit aromas. The palate is long and juicy with subtle acid and refined residual sugar.

The fruit was hand harvested from their Fareham Lane vineyard and gently pressed and fermented long and slow in stainless steel to preserve the luscious fruit flavours and zesty freshness. Light less contact post ferment adds complexity and body.

Misty Cove’s Landmark Riesling is deeply influenced by old world winemaking techniques. Lovingly handcrafted with small batch qualities, they crafted this wine to reflect the “Landmark” – the attributes and characteristics of the Fareham Lane vineyard from which it originated.
