Description
Delicate and slow-ripening, Riesling made its name in the cool climate vineyards of Germany and Alsace. This bone-dry Kiwi version is every bit as appetising with plenty of lime-fresh appeal.
Winemaker Dr John Forrest has established an enviable reputation for his wines over the years with his now-famous Sauvignons stealing headlines and awards from the regions top producers. This brand new gem looks set to do the same, having already swept the board at local wine shows.
Astoundingly fresh, this zippy Riesling has bags of citrus and lemon-grass flavours. Mouthwatering and zesty, it's amazingly clean fruit makes it the perfect partner for spicy Asian cuisine.
