A taut, dry, high-energy Riesling with lime, mineral, orange blossom and apple flavours, and fine, tangy acidity that helps drive a lengthy finish. A classy wine.

A stunning wine, this is almost weightless. It's precise with delicate aromas of lemon/ lime, floral, green apple and flint with a hint of jasmine. The palate is focused and linear showing fine texture and outstanding persistence. Lovely flow and harmony.

The 2013 Riesling reveals lovely lime cordial and pink grapefruit notes with hints of honeysuckle, allspice and jasmine. Dry and light bodied in style, it offers great harmony even at this youthful stage with mouth-filling citrus flavours marked by lively acid, and finishing long and spicy.

For lovers of this varietal comes a stunner from Martinborough's Te Muna area. This wine has a tending dry finish with a smart, biting citrus thread and a whiff of candy. Try with anything but also with tempura or scallops.
