Sweet Riesling 2022

(2 customer reviews)

$28.00

Tasting Notes:

This delicious sweet Riesling displays notes of apple, nectarine and peach, with hints of honeyed blossom. A lush sweet wine balanced by refreshing, crisp acidity. 

Wine making:

This wine was blended from two styles of winemaking. A portion was fermented dry in stainless steel. Another select portion of Riesling was left to further ripen on the vines and made into a sweet late harvest style wine. The two were then blended to create interest and texture in this delicious wine. The wine was made with low intervention and minimal sulfites at bottling.

Description

This delicious sweet Riesling displays notes of apple, nectarine and peach, with hints of honeyed blossom. A lush sweet wine balanced by refreshing, crisp acidity. 

We carefully grow and handpick our organic Riesling grapes on our sunny vineyard in Waipara, North Canterbury. Our winemakers use minimal intervention in the wine-making process to allow the fruit and terroir to fully express itself. We use natural wild yeasts to ferment our wine, with minimal sulphites at bottling. This wine is vegan.

The Waipara Vineyard sits within the Omihi Basin on Awapuni clay loam, below rolling limestone hills to the east.This part of the North Canterbury wine growing region enjoys a micro climate that is consistently several degrees warmer than the Port Hills. Creating a terroir that delivers concentrated and expressive wines.
