Our Riesling has been carefully cellared to bring out the finest qualities one would expect from a superb, aged Riesling. This aromatic, floral wine displays lanolin and soft rose petal notes on the nose. It has a beautiful golden, amber colour and shows lively lemon flavours, excellent acidity and minerality, and a soft honeyed character that adds to its complexity.Varietal: 100% RieslingAppellation: MarlboroughVineyard: Falveys Road Estate VineyardBarrel Aging: 100% stainless steelCheeses: For this dry Riesling pair with creamy, fatty, salty cheeses. The acidity of the Riesling cuts through the fat and the cream and also brings out the saltiness of the saltier cheeses.Foods: Most younger, sweeter Rieslings tend to pair best with salads, raw artichokes, pork, crabmeat, Asian foods, sushi. However, try matching Omaka Springs Rieslings with Fish Cakes, Seared Tuna, Risottos, cooked Artichokes, Braised Rabbit. 2007 Riesling (Last vintage produced)Cases Produced: 1,000Alcohol: 12.7%Brix at harvest: 23Residual sugar: 8.4 g/l - 87 points Wine Enthusiast Magazine (USA) - 3 Stars Bob Campbell MW (NZ)- 90pts Sam Kim, Wine Writer/Consultant (NZ)"A beautifully maturing wine showing lifted aromas of ripe citrus, stonefruit and a touch of toasty notes.
