Recipes
“Think spice, flowers, minerals, limes and peaches. I tasted mostly dry and off -dry versions, and the fruit was plentiful and pure and in balance with the acid.” Jerry Shriver, USA Today
A great alternative to German Mosel Rieslings. NZ Riesling ranges from bone dry & steely to luscious & sweet. Most lean towards an off-dry style with artfully balanced zesty citrus & lime. Young wines often show the fragrant aromas of apple, citrus, lemon & tropical fruit. With age, toasted honey & sometimes kerosene characters can develop. The cooler South Island produces the majority of our Riesling.
