Craggy Range Riesling

Vintage 2020

A nice clean broad riesling, dry with a reasonably long interesting finish. Textbook stuff from Steve Smith and the team.

Very pale straw-lemon in colour. Aromas of lemon curd, kaffir lime leaf, and rose petal. The palate is taut and long, with a crunchy lemon acid driving long through the finish.

The mid-palate has a delicious pithiness, with varietal flavours of mandarin, grapefruit, and lime. A salivating wine that celebrates the freshness of this variety and the Te Muna site.
