It is beautifully clean, crisp and dry and is versatile as they come – enjoy it as a patio sipper or pair with seafood, grilled meats or charcuterie. Riesling is also a surprisingly great pair with our King Cole blue cheese.
Nose: gooseberry, lime, papaya and lemon tart
Palate: lemon zest, gooseberry, guava and bright acidity
