Spry and full of life, this Kiwi Riesling has a more than generous display of both fruit and grip, I can see the Alsatian comparison without difficulty. At once rich, but full of snap, bitter quinine touch on the finish, perfect for a hot day and grilled fish.

Grabbed from K&L Wine ( a few left) a pleasant surprise from the land of Kiwi that isnt another cat pee SB. Clear pale yellow. Nose of ripe peach, tangerine, wet stone Good texture, not oily, but full: lanolin, tad off dry, great body, lingering finish, spicy acidity.
Unfined, unfiltered, not cold stabilized. Bravo.
A pleasing change, welcome, have a few other bottles from this producer excited to try.
