Riesling sings in the hands of Duncan Forsyth.
This wine shows a textural, off-dry style of Central Otago Riesling that drinks beautifully now or could cellar for a decade plus.
The fruit is all organically farmed, then whole-bunch pressed and allowed to finish ferment with a little residual sugar in the wine to find balance against the bracing backdrop of acidity that is typical of Riesling from this region.
This is a top flight release here from one of Otago's finest artisan labels.

"It’s a class act. So delicious to drink, thirst-slaking and stacked with personality. Benchmark stuff."
