Vibrant flavours of citrus and honeysuckle on the palate leading to a crisp zesty finish. The mouthfeel is balanced between mineral acidity and its fine texture.

Four Winds Riesling features a bright straw colour with green hues. The perfumed nose exudes tropical fruit scents. The vibrant palate contains citrus, lime and lemon flavours. These beautiful characters are balanced by residual sugar and natural acidity, which eventually pave the way for a delicate and refreshing finish. This off-dry Riesling tastes marvellous with roast turkey with rosemary and lemon, steamed mussels and apple tart.

This vintage Riesling was harvested from the Central Otago wine region. It has an alcohol level of 8.4% and the colour of this medium-sweet white wine is a glittering pale white gold. Primary fruit aromas of nectarine, apricot, honey-crisp apple, citrus, spring blossoms and plum flow off the nose, with underpinned fragrances of honeycomb, ginger and clove. The palate features flavours of apple, pear and mineral nuances, with a touch of honey that fills the mouth and leaves a fresh taste. The mid-palate is filled with notes of tangerine and lime. The balanced sweetness and fine acidity are brought to fruition by a long and cleansing finish. This wine is best served at 43°F. Here are a few food suggestions: honey-roasted pork with braised vegetables, stir-fried shrimp with bacon, fried semolina dumplings with apricots, and snapper with charred tomatillos.

This wine is pale yellow in colour with a light green hue. This is an off-dry style wine, giving off initial aromas of lime, tangy lemon verbena, nectarine and apple lemon, coupled with traces of musk and roses. It is an intricate mix of fruit passion, acidity, sweetness and alcohol where each attribute is in harmony with the other, resulting in a wine with personality and charm. Delicious lime and passion fruit flavours gently run through the palate ending fresh and almost dry due to the acidity, which balances the grape-derived sweetness. A food-friendly ally, this may be taken with the not too spicy Asian cuisine, fresh salads, hard cheese or simple seafood. On its own, it can be enjoyed as a chilled aperitif.

Von Buhl’s entry-level wine is drawn from the estate’s great sandstone-rich vineyards around the villages of Deidesheim, Forst and Ruppertsberg. All the vineyards are certified organic. In the cellars, most of the juice is naturally fermented in tank, with some parcels fermented in Von Buhl's oval dopplestück oak casks. Even at this level, the wine’s upbringing includes extended lees aging (six months on gross lees). There is no pumping, and very low sulphur additions. This is a juicy, mineral-rich Riesling, with the extra palate weight of the vintage proving a perfect foil for the rocky texture, mouth-watering, citrus-edged acidity and near-absolute-dry finish. It will, as always, work wonders by the glass (and bottle).

Located in far western Germany, the Mosel valley's steep, southfacing slopes create the perfect climate for Riesling, giving the vines ideal exposure to the sun. The cool climate allows the grapes to ripen slowly while retaining bright acidity. Founder/Winemaker Markus Huls is widely considered one of the star producers of Mosel Riesling. Scent of citrus fruits, green apple, white pepper and flint stone. Lively, refreshing, balanced. Fresh finish with a long lasting slate mineral impression. This captures the elegant and racy characteristics of steep, slate-soil Mosel vineyards at a reasonable price.

The 2021 Korrell Riesling Trocken from Nahe, Germany is a sophisticated and elegant expression of this classic grape variety. On the nose, vibrant aromas of ripe peach, apricot, and green apple mingle with subtle notes of white flowers and flint. On the palate, this dry Riesling is bursting with intense flavors of citrus, Granny Smith apple, and a hint of mineral complexity. The wine's crisp acidity and well-balanced structure lend to a refreshing and lingering finish. With its pale straw color and delicate yet pronounced aromas and flavors, this Riesling is a true representation of the terroir of Nahe. Pair it with seafood dishes, spicy Asian cuisine, or simply enjoy it on its own as a refreshing aperitif. This 2021 vintage from Korrell is a testament to their expertise and dedication to producing high-quality Riesling wines.

F.G.R. Stands for Forty Grams Residual. Made in an homage to the Germanic Kabinett style, it is loaded with forward fruit, and plenty of luscious residual sugar, but enough fine acid carries the palate to a crisp dry finish.

Freycinet Riesling is pale straw in colour with a bouquet of orange blossom and honey that makes for immediate appeal. The palate is tightly structured with long citrus and grapefruit flavours. A real keeper!
