Description

• Granny smith

"Low alcohol riesling that should appeal to those who, like me, enjoy kabinett riesling from the Mosel. Lovely purity with lime zest, orange blossom, and a suggestion of oyster shell. A perfect acid-and-sugar balance with a dry-ish and lingering finish" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Nov 2020

Nothing’s quite as fun as their Riesling. It’s like biting into a deliciously crisp Granny Smith apple while simultaneously licking lime sherbet and apricot. So easy to drink, with the perfect balance of fruit sweetness and fresh acidity at a modest 9% alcohol. A much better way to enjoy life.

By thinking differently, they have perfected a delicious full flavoured wine by slowing the grape plant’s ability to make sugar but not its ability to make flavour. And it’s all done in the vineyard, no chemistry tricks or genetic engineering wizardry at the vineyard. Just sustainably grown, naturally produced lower alcohol wine.

Food Pairing: An ideal match with fresh Wairau River whitebait
