Description
In a nutshell:
A vibrant, easy-drinking Riesling from New Zealand's South Island. This one's full of lively fruit and has a lovely, crisp finish.
The lowdown:
This Riesling's delicate citrus nose leads into a palate of ripe apricots and a touch of honey. It hails from Waipara, an up-and-coming region where Riesling really thrives. The fruit was picked over several weeks for depth and complexity, reflecting the winery's commitment to sustainable practices. Modest at just 11% ABV, a touch of sweetness perfectly balances the vibrant acidity. Expect vibrant fruit, floral hints, and a smooth finish that calls for another sip.
The Producer:
Dayne and Jill Sherwood were true pioneers when they established Sherwood Estate Wines in 1987. It was a time of learning for many in the New Zealand wine scene, and this dedicated couple carved their path with passion. Now a major player and a significant family-owned estate, Sherwood is a testament to their work. Their Waipara Valley winery is a hive of activity under the careful eye of Chief Winemaker Petter Evans from whom you can consistently expect balanced, well-crafted wines. Keep your eyes peeled for Waipara in North Canterbury - this is a wine region with a future.
When to drink:
Lovely with a simple stir-fry, or perhaps some Thai fishcakes - its lightness and touch of sweetness work well with dishes that have a hint of spice.
Suitable for Vegans
