About the wine

Tasting notes

Lovely golden in colour with a tightly coiled bouquet of elegant and lively, interweaving florals with dried fruit. The palate is fresh and captivating, with notes of chèvre and tart white peach, complemented by slate and salinity in a smooth, medium body. A vein of searing acidity runs through into the long finish.

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!
