Description
Domain Road The Water Race Dry Riesling, Bannockburn, Central Otago, New Zealand, 2017
Grape: 100% Riesling, hand harvested, unoaked
This electric Riesling was whole bunch pressed and fermented to retain a hint of sweetness in an off dry style. Pears and stone fruit dominate the bouquet, together with hints of quince. The sweet taste of pears and peaches comes through on the palate. This medium bodied wine has a good texture and fine balance.
"Minerality, citrus and intense apple, fruit spice, citrus peel and crushed rose aromas. Definitely dry on the palate with intense acidity and flavours that match the nose. Lovely long finish, tense and poised. Drink now and through 2030+."
94/100 points, Cameron Douglas MS
An excellent food wine, full of flavour, so it can hold its own against quite strong flavoured cuisine. Also excellent with fish and seafood.
