            2008 Cordon Cut Riesling

2008 Cordon Cut Riesling

Bright light yellow gold.  Delicate yet intense aromas of orange marmalade, star anise and vanilla bean, with wildflower notes that beguile the senses. Classic cordon cut flavours ring true in this vintage, where clever winemaking technique concentrates the natural citrus flavours of the grape, intensifying the sweetness yet retaining the intrinsic acidity of the Riesling grape. It’s incredibly sweet, lively and appealing, full of flavour yet not overpowering and has a crisp clean sweet citrus finish.

So delicious it can be enjoyed as a dessert on its own. Or better still, partner with lemon/lime and other fruit-based desserts.

2007 Cordon Cut Riesling

‘Cordon Cut’ refers to a unique, risky process which involves cutting the canes when the grapes are ripe, allowing the remaining fruit to concentrate and raisin naturally on the vine. This results in intense flavour and richness.

Bright intense golden colour.

Concentrated aromas of spice, ripe lemon and wildflower notes with a touch of vanilla and honey. Riper citrus flavours (tangerine and cumquat) and even greater intensity reflect the season.

Delicious and rich, the sweetness is kept in check by a backbone of lively acidity: wonderfully clean, precise and complete.
