About the wine

Tasting notes

Aromas of white florals, yellow and orange citrus fruit, exotic pineapple, ginger spice and gentle whispers of smoke and stonefruit. There’s so much complexity and deep mninerality that perfectly outlines this exceptional grand Cru. In the mouth it’s dense, intense and full-bodied, but deeply mineral, nervy and graced with brilliant acidity and gentle bitter phenolics. It echoes the nose, albeit with more nuance, and drives with mind boggling intensity and length. Absolutely STUNNING!

The Grape

Riesling

A very special white grape variety that makes aromatic, age worthy and incredibly fine wines that are loved by wine connoisseurs the world over. Made most famous for the exceptional expressions that come out of Germany, Riesling epitomises white wine of elegance, finesse and complexity. From bone dry to intensely sweet, there's a broad spectrum of expressions ranging from lean and crisp flavours of lime, green apple, pear, jasmine and chalky minerality, to richly flavoured and highly perfumed expressions with Thai basil, saffron, ginger, papaya, nutmeg and honey. Incredible wines and alway good value!
