Mt Difficulty Target Medium Riesling
The bouquet sings with fragrant apple blossom, lime zest and kaffir lime fruit, cascading into a clean and zesty palate of impeccable fruit presence and considerable concentration. 40g/L of sweetness (equivalent to a teaspoon of sugar per glass) sits comfortably, letting its finely mineral acidity have the final word on the finish. Testimony to the outstanding riesling season of 2012 in Central Otago, this is a wine of delightful balance, captivating freshness and fantastic energy. $27 at Cellar d’Or and Discount Wines.
