Note for Australian customers: this wine is only for sale in New Zealand as it is not available in our warehouse in Sydney
This beautifully balanced medium sweet Riesling is highly perfumed with aromas of white blossom, ripe apple, citrus, pear, and elderflower on the nose. The palate also shows rockmelon, lime cordial and poached pear. The wine is medium in body with a fresh, lingering finish. It’s a versatile Riesling that will shine as an aperitif and pair well with seafood, curries and many creamy and soft cheeses. Enjoyable at release, this wine will continue to evolve for 10+ years.

Vintage notes
The 2023-2024 growing season was hot and dry in January and February followed by an exceptionally cool March which compacted picking across the region. The nights remained cool which helped retain the perfect level of acidity for Riesling.
Wine making notes
These Riesling grapes came from a steeply sloped vineyard in Bendigo. The grapes were hand-harvested in mid-April while the fruit was in pristine condition. The Riesling was whole bunch pressed and cool fermented to retain aromatic freshness. Fermentation was stopped at optimal balance for a medium-style Riesling.
