2023 Late Harvest Riesling
Appearance
Pale straw with a green tinge.
Bouquet
Fresh aromatic nose of ripe riesling notes of nashi pear, talc and Granny Smith apple.
Palate
Intense and rich palate, sweet ripe grapes and citrus, balanced by bracing acidity to give it a sherbet-like zesty finish and balance the sweetness.
Fermentation
Late harvested Riesling was pressed into stainless steel tank for fermentation at 12 degrees C for 5 days, then chilled down to stop the process and retain sweetness. The wine was then fined, filtered, and bottled early to retain fresh fruit driven characters, residual sugar and balancing acidity. Bottled September 2023
Conclusion
Enjoy over the next 2 to 6 years with desserts and cheeses.
