Freshly squeezed lime juice and lemon zest with jasmine flowers on the nose awaken the palate to flavours of rich citrus, ripe apple and incredibly limey acidity which gives the wine great length. This Riesling is exquisitely balanced and wonderful on its own, but it will also pair beautifully with summer salads, fresh fish, seafood and light-medium spiced Indian or Thai cuisine. A fresh and fragrant young wine.

Dessert Wine
2018 Gibbston Valley Late Harvest Pinot Gris (Central Otago) (375mls)
The Late Harvest Pinot Gris is a decadent late harvest style, with exotic tropical flavours. Bright straw gold, the wine is expressive, full and lusciously good. Enjoyable from the outset, the nose gives bright tropical and melon aromas with hints of exotic aromas of the east; and marmalade. The palate is hedonistically lush yet surprisingly fresh, unfurling gorgeously over the palate. The sweetness and dense texture lead to a honeyed, faintly caramelised finish.
