Burn Cottage Vineyard Riesling Gruner Veltliner

Early season was somewhat changeable with cool temperatures at times, one impact of this was that flowering extended over a long period. Temperatures rose favourably to bring great summer conditions through January, and February had fine weather interspersed with higher than average rainfall. Mild conditions in March preserved wonderful balance and acidity. The Riesling and Gruner Veltliner grow in a slightly cooler microclimate near the top of our site, allowing these varieties time for flavour development and concentration.

Enticing notes of white peach, with florals of jasmine, lime, white pepper and ginger spice. The palate is richly textural and expressive, with a wonderful chalky mineral element enhanced by skin contact pre-fermentation, and fine supple structure. Lovely persistence through the palate.
