Description
In a nutshell:
A vibrant South Island Kiwi Riesling with a touch of richness. This one's full of lively fruit and a lovely crisp finish
The lowdown:
Waipara may not have Marlborough's fame, but it quietly produces some excellent wines, and Riesling is a grape that thrives here thanks to the region's soils and climate. This one has a delicate citrus nose, leading onto ripe apricots and a touch of honey on the palate. Full of flavour yet beautifully balanced, its bright fruit and floral notes are smoothed out by a silky mouthfeel. With modest alcohol at just 11%, a touch of sweetness reins in the zippy acidity - keeping things lively but never sharp enough to bite.
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
