The 2020 Mount Ridge Waipara Riesling has vibrant aromas of lemon zest, kaffir lime, musk, honeysuckle... And is that a touch of lavender? Luscious and succulent, Great intensity and purity of flavour, balanced by refreshing crispness. Lovely.

A Riesling which brings together outstanding fruit from two of New Zealand’s pre-eminent growing areas – Marlborough and Waipara. Following harvest, parcels of fruit were gently pressed before settling for 36 hours. From there the juice was racked and underwent cool temperature fermentation. Our winemakers tasted the wine through the ferment and stopped it when the Riesling achieved the perfect balance of flavours. Love a riesling! Check out the vibrant aromas of lemon zest, kaffir lime, musk, honeysuckle… And is that a touch of lavender? Luscious and succulent, Great intensity and purity of flavour, balanced by refreshing crispness. Lovely.
