Vibrant, Zesty Central Otago Riesling
Soaking up the 'last light' from the days sun, our grapes for this wine ripen slowly creating delicious, intense fruit flavours.
Our 2022 vintage is a stunning, medium/off-dry Riesling with vibrant aromas of sweet apricot, freesia, perfume, citrus blossom and a touch of nettle.
The palate is off-dry to medium with ripe apricot, tangelo, lemon, grapefruit and good minerality. Complex with crisp acidity balancing nicely with fruit sweetness and leading to a long citrus finish.

Winemaking Notes
The fruit selected for this Riesling was hand harvested on 4 April 2022 at 21.1 brix from one hectare of vines that are ideally situated to soak up the ʻlast lightʼ from the days sun.
The fruit was whole bunch pressed into a tank where the juice was inoculated with selected wine yeast to undergo fermentation.
The fermentation was stopped at 18.1 grams/litre of residual sugar.
