This wine is distinct from the 'dry Craighall Riesling' released in spring. It is largely from a different block of Riesling (in the same vineyard), cropped low and picked mid-May with a little incipient botrytis. The wine was finished medium-dry, and the flavours are more limey and less floral than the Spring Release wine. This is still in a relatively dry style but it is more adaptable for casual drinking than the true dry Riesling. As always, the Riesling is suitable for laying down. |
