In keeping with many rieslings from NZ, this is a slightly off-dry style, but with enough acid to balance the touch of residual sugar.

2004

4/5 stars from Michael Cooper in his Buyer's Guide to NZ Wines 2006

gold medal: Royal National Wine Show Canberra 2004

Winemaker’s tasting notes: "A well balanced wine; palest lemon green in colour with lime and floral aromas; the wine has mineral notes and there are limes and white nectarine flavours on the palate; with crisp acids and good palate weight, this full-flavoured wine is drinking well now and will reward cellaring for several years".
