Anchorage Classic Riesling 2007 |
| Produced By
Anchorage Wines New Zealand Limited |
| Wine Description |
|
An approachable medium style riesling with a tropical palate and nose. The fruit salad palate is mouth-filling and long-lasting, made in a middleweight style with hints of deeper honeycomb characteristics to come. |
| Winemakers Notes |
|
Harvested from Ray’s Riwaka home block and trucked to a Marlborough winery, the fruit was de-stemmed and bag pressed to tanks where a light fining occurred. After cold settling, the juice was clean-racked, with no solid pressing material used. Following inoculation with a German yeast strain, it underwent a “warmer” fermentation to develop its tropical palate. A stop-ferment was performed at an early stage to create a classic riesling. |

| TiZwine Accolades |
  |
| A proper honeysuckle and petrol nose promises much and the palate certainly delivers with sweet, ripe, juicy, tropical shining through. The wine also has good balance, richness and excellent length. Great price too! |
