Review

Each sip of this wine is a delightfully rounded sensual pleasure, an unctuous, creamy mouthful of honeydew melon, peach and mango balanced with a citrus acidity and underpinned by a deep mineral base.  The rich texture comes from the late harvested Spätlese grapes which bring a whopping 79 g/l of residual sugar but do not fear that this wine is too sweet – it is perfect.  It can however serve as a light alternative to a dessert wine, ideal to serve with a rich blue cheese.

Makers Notes

This ice pure minerally Spätlese (late harvest) Riesling has zesty lemon and lime flavours which perfectly partner Asian and spicy cuisine .. .or drink on its own or with cheese dishes.
