Cocktail-like gush of Key lime, mandarin and sugar syrup, balanced perfectly by sprightly, almost fizzy, acidity. Such a mouthwatering aperitif now and for summer. A bottle would vanish very fast indeed - and so it can, with only 10% of alcohol! Now-2013

Product Code: WAI408

Waipara Springs announce on their website that for this Riesling they are “aiming for an elegant wine exhibiting fruit concentration and vibrant acidity balanced with natural sugars and low alcohol”, i.e. a Riesling in the traditional Mosel style. They have certainly succeeded: this is so appealing, off-dry (25 grams of residual sugar) yet with a refreshing zippiness from a spritz of natural carbon dioxide.
