Te Karanga Riesling 2016, Martinborough

An enticing and pure fruited bouquet with aromas of lime cordial and lemon, fresh lime and apricot stone. A floral and gentle silty mineral layer adds complexity, perfume and charm. On the palate - dry on the palate with a youthful acid line commanding the texture. A gentle residual sweetness brings clarity and balance. Flavours of citrus and tree fruits are of equal intensity while the mineral and floral attributes remain strong. A lovely wine still on its journey to full maturity. Well made with enticing flavours and long finish. Best drinking from 2021 through 2027+.
