Riesling

$58.99

Riesling is all about the green apple flavours. It has balanced minerality with strong flavours of granny smith apples. If it is made dry, then it will be quite crisp and the tartness of the apple will be pronounced. If made off dry, then there will be a bit of sweetness to balance out the tartness. We tend to prefer it off-dry! Scroll down to learn more.

Riesling - Germany

Originating in the Rhine region of Germany, the riesling grapes are estimated to be the world’s 20th most grown variety. The grapes are white and light skinned and grow in smaller bunches, aiding in their bright and crisp flavours.

Juice Description

• Aromatic variety displaying flowery, almost perfumed aromas

• Very strong acids

• Bright and crisp

• An apple and grapefruit nose

Wine Description

• Often consumed when young

• Wine may have aromas of green or other apples, peach, honey, rose blossom or cut green grass, and usually a crisp taste due to the high acidity.

• Wines tend to acquire a petrol note which is an integral part of the aroma profile of mature Riesling.

• The most planted of Germany’s best known varieties

Winemaker's Notes

• We recommend this wine be made off-dry. It brings a beautiful balance of sweet and tart green apple notes.

• If made dry, we recommend aging at least 9 months. Off-Dry Riesling can be enjoyed within a couple of months.

• We find that it blends nicely with Gewurztraminer, Chardonnay, and Pinot Grigio

• We do not oak this wine

Our juices are packaged in a food grade 11.2L (2.9 U.S.gallon) plastic canister that are hermetically sealed.  After we harvest, crush and press the grapes, we then Flash Pasteurize the juice and hot fill them, to ensure, a clean, bacteria and yeast free environment.

Each canister weighs approximately 12.8kg (28.2lbs) and comes with one 5g package of our preferred Yeast. Our shelf stable juices will last up to 18 months in their original packaging.
