DESCRIPTION
Greywacke Riesling 2021 bears the signature of Kevin Judd in New Zealand. This Riesling stands out for its silky texture and refined complexity, boasting a perfect balance between light sweetness and lively acidity. Vinified in stainless steel tanks to preserve its aromatic purity, it combines a seductive minerality with floral elegance.
The nose reveals floral aromas, white fruits, honey, and melon, enriched by aniseed notes. The palate is silky and juicy, driven by a vibrant acidity and a remarkable minerality. The residual sugar ($18.6 g/L for the 2021 or $19g/L for the 2022) provides excellent balance. Aging potential of 10 years and more. Pairing with pan-seared foie gras or fish tacos with mango salsa.
région
Marlborough
New Zealand
Marlborough is by far New Zealand’s most important wine region. Located at the northeastern tip of the South Island, this dry, sunny region is home to over 500 wineries and produces nearly 75% of New Zealand’s wine. Warm days, cool nights, and well-drained alluvial soils create ideal conditions for aromatic wines with crisp acidity.
It is here that the Marlborough style of Sauvignon Blanc was born, a style that has taken the world by storm: vibrant, intensely fruity, with herbal notes and a saline minerality. While Sauvignon Blanc dominates, Marlborough also produces excellent Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Riesling, cementing its reputation as New Zealand’s international wine showcase.
