Riesling from New Zealand - Canterbury & Waipara
Review Date : 19-Dec-2024
Bright, even, pale yellow. The nose is expressive, with aromas of lime, stonefruit, minerals and jasmine. Medium-full bodied, off-dry to taste, aromas of lime and apricot entwined with zest, jasmine, apple skins and stony minerals. Invigorating acidity cuts through the sweetness and drives with precision. Apple skin and stony minerals contribute texture to this well-balanced, vibrant Riesling. Match with pork hock and spicy fish tacos over the next 5+ years. Handpicked, fermented in stainless steel to 12% alc. Organic certified. 18.5+/20 pts (94 pts) Dec 2024 RRP $32
