Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: light-bodied, high acidity, dry
A bright, bone-dry Riesling from Bannockburn in Central Otago, where cool nights and long sunny days preserve crisp acidity while giving ripe citrus and stone-fruit character. Expect a taut, mineral-driven style with lime zest and green apple notes, finishing clean and dry rather than lush. A versatile, food-friendly white that rewards a squeeze of lemon on the plate.
