Grape

Riesling

Origin
The Waipara valley is 30 minutes' drive from Christchurch in the Canterbury region, and this wine is named in honour of New Zealand's Southern Alps, known locally as the Main Divide, which lies to the west. Some botrytized grapes were added to provide a honeyed richness.
Taste
Slightly off-dry in style, the palate is attacked with wave after wave of honeysuckle, ripe apricot and lime, with a minerally undercurrent and zippy acidity.
Enjoy
Rich and viscous, this wine can be enjoyed by itself but will also harmonise with oysters or chinese duck.

    What a good Riesling should be.

    Yes its fresh, yes its zingy, yes it limey, yes it has petrol hints, YES ITS RIESLING. A great example of New World Riesling. If you like Riesling, you'll love this!

    Zingy

    Startlingly zingy, not too dry, strong flavours and rather too much for me. Needs to be go with the right food, nothing too subtle.
