Palliser Riesling 2023
Only
$29.00
Commercial Description
Pale lemon colour in the glass. Beautifully pure aromas of white florals, tonic water, mandarin, lemonade popsicle, wet stone and Granny Smith apple. Off-dry in style, it's lucious and bright with juice citrus flavours of mandarin and lemonade. A chalky, grippy mouth-feel adding texture to the refreshingly tangy and bitter finish. Like a good gin and tonic (but at a very moderate 11% alcohol).
51% of the fruit from our organic vineyard Om Santi, with the balance split between Pinnacles and Clouston Vineyards.
The grapes are gently pressed with 10% taken straight to barrel. The balance cold settled over- night and then racked to stainless tank. The ferment in barrel is carried out by vineyard yeast with 13.5g/L of residual sugar in the tank portion. The wine is aged for a further 2 months on lees before bottling.
Food Pairing: A great aperitif to whet the appetite before a meal, it will also pair well with Japanese and Vietnamese cuisine. Enjoy now to 2030.
