Two Paddocks Central Otago Riesling (2018)

Estate-grown in the Red Bank Vineyard at Earnscleugh, near Alexandra, the 2018 vintage (4.5*) is a weighty, fleshy, full-bodied Riesling. Ripely scented, it is a powerful, youthful wine, with concentrated, citrusy, peachy flavours, a sliver of sweetness (8 grams/litre of residual sugar), and lively acidity. Already very approachable, it should be at its best 2022+. Certified organic.
