Tasting Notes
This Riesling is made in the style of a German Spatlese with low alcohol, vibrant acid and residual sugar. The relatively cool 2007 growing season has produced an elegant wine with focus, clarity, and the intense citrus characters of Waipara spice. On the palate flavors of lemon, limes and apple are complemented with hints of gingernut, spice and subtle mid-palate minerality. Crisp cleansing acidity, touches of grapefruit and natural carbon dioxide provide the final flourish. This elegant wine beautifully matches fresh light dishes and salads.
This classically styled Riesling will reward the patient cellar with the confidence of screw cap by continuing to evolve tasty honeyed and marmalade characters.
