Now assuming cult status in the New Zealand wine scene the Doctors’ Riesling continues to amaze wine critics and novices alike. Grown on our stony Condors bend vineyard at Renwick the fruit ripens slowly, in Marlborough’s cool dry autumn climate, gaining flavour intensity yet retaining all important acidity. Harvested early at low sugars the grapes are gently pressed, cold settled and given a cool slow fermentation which was arrested around 8.5% alcohol and 42g/l residual sugar. The final decision on when to stop the wine fermentation is very much decided on acid/sugar balance. Tasting Notes Our latest Doctors’ Riesling shows those signature lime sherbet, granny smith apple, mandarin flavours and refreshing taste that have made it such an appealing wine. On the palate aromas of citrus, apricots & Asian spice, lovely fruit sweetness, balanced by fine acidity and the wines naturally lower alcohol, 8.5%, ensure each mouthful is a refreshing delicious experience. Perfect on a summers day or as I’ve discovered, the perfect palate cleanser at the end of an evening.
