Anchorage Dry Riesling 2006 |
| Produced By
Anchorage Wines New Zealand Limited |
| Wine Description |
|
Refreshing mineral overtones are evident on both the nose and palate, combined on the nose with aromas of apple, ripe citrus and honeysuckle. The palate is mouth-filling and long-lasting, made in a drier style but promising deeper honeyed characteristics as it develops. |
| Winemakers Notes |
|
Carefully harvested ripe fruit was de-stemmed but not crushed, then pressed with minimal skin contact to minimise phenolics. The juice was then treated reductively to preserve the aromatic fruit character. After cold settling, the clean-racked (low grape solids) juice was inoculated with a German yeast. The fermentation was long and cool, again to preserve the integrity of the variety. Post-fermentation, the wine was racked off its gross lees, left on fine lees for as periods then fined for stability and palate roundness. |
