D'Arenberg The Dry Dam Riesling

Fresh and zesty, a wonderful balance between flavour intensity, sweetness and refreshing acidity. A stunning, bright, light green colour, opens up on a really fine bouquet of fresh lime, lemon zest and elderflower tea. The palate shows a fine balance between the residual sugar and the vibrant acidity. Notes of a sherbet texture accompanied by kaffir lime, predominantly granny smith apple and a freshness of green pineapple in the end. A vibrant and crisp finish. Definitely a wine to drink now. Small batches of grapes are gently crushed, chilled, and then basket pressed. The fermentation was long and cool, and was stopped before reaching total dryness to ensure that residual sugar remains to balance the high mineral acidity.
