Grape

Riesling

Origin
The proximity of the Pacific Ocean to the Leyda Valley has a cooling influence on these vineyards and makes it a unique spot for the development of 'new' varieties in Chile such as Riesling.
Taste
This dry Riesling is an expressive wine showing plenty of citrus and mandarin character. In the mouth there is plenty of fruit, this is well balanced by good minerality and racy acidity in the finish.
Enjoy
Providing exotic drinking now, this aromatic style of wine would be a great match for shellfish or spicy Thai dishes.

    Very good Riesling

    At £7 this is a very good Riesling. Slight kerosene on the nose (in a good way), passionfruit & pear with good minerality & acidity to balance it nicely.

    Very enjoyable

    I tried this at a tasting with a guy who knows a lot about Riesling and imports the best riesling from germany, he said this is much more like a proper riesling than the commercial stuff they sell in supermarkets. I personally enjoyed it very much. Lots of citrus and grassy notes and excellent length. Would definitely recommend.
