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.

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.

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