Riesling

The Waipara Valley is renowned for its Rieslings.  Our Riesling vines are amongst the oldest on our vineyard and are a mix of clones to provide depth of flavour.   The cool nights and hot days during summer produce grapes with good levels of acidity so we often leave a small amount of residual sugar to balance out this acidity.

2009 Riesling

This Riesling has lemon and lime flavours along with a hint of spice.  Gravelly minerality and high acidity are softened by a slight sweetness and the finish is crisp and dry.  

 

 

2011 Riesling

This fruit driven Riesling has lemon and lime aromas with a spicey, floral note. The palate is rich in both texture and concentration with good balance, acidity and fruit flavour.
