Description

The 2019 Tūpari Dry Riesling is a finely textured, single vineyard wine with rich flavours and complexity, underpinned by a lingering crisp mineral finish. Imagine a meal you would squeeze a lemon over, and instead open a bottle of Tupari Dry Riesling!

FOOD MATCH: A definitive food wine and ideal companion for freshly shucked oysters, tempura or grilled fish.

CHEESE MATCH: When the Riesling is young, match with a young and firm camembert or brie, goats cheese or chevre.

Tasting Tupari Dry Riesling on the Vineyard

Vineyard

The Tūpari Riesling block is situated on a thin terrace stretching along the top of the cliff face with magnificent valley views. Warm days and cool nights combined to create the distinguishing mineral character and rich flavours typical of the Awatere Valley.

Vinification

Following harvest in the cool of the night, the gently pressed juice was carefully fermented, and the process suspended with only a few grams of sugar remaining.
