Max Ferdinand Richter Veldenzer Elisenberg Riesling Auslese Mosel QmP

Mount Horrocks CORDON CUT Riesling Clare Valley South Australia
Description: Cordon Cut' refers to a unique, risky process. It involves cutting the canes when the grapes are ripe, allowing the remaining fruit to concentrate and raisin naturally on the vine. This results in intense flavour and richness. Mount Horrocks Cordon Cut Riesling is bright white gold with lime-edges. Abundant distinctive riesling fruit aromas suggest a stunning wine. It's floral-scented, with candied orange and fragrant lime cordial notes. The concentrated fruit and high sugar content give a luscious, slippery mouthfeel. Remarkably fresh and lively flavours of dried apricots, lime, and honeysuckle are matched perfectly with a well-balanced, zippy acid close. (12 x 37.5 cl)
Price: £167.75

Paul Cluver Riesling Elgin RSA
Description: South Easterly winds often blow cool moist air and many times rain into the Elgin/Grabouw valley. This cool moist weather results into the development of botrytis. Every year we have some botrytis in the Riesling vineyard. This not only allows us to make some great dessert wine, but also adds complexity to our Riesling. This wine shows typical varietal flavours, lots of spice and floral tones is very austere and has the typical Riesling nervousness. The palate is elegant and rich with a long lingering after taste carried by the great acidity of the wine, typical for the varietal. (6 x 75 cl)
Price: £52.03

Pieropan PASSITO della ROCCA Veneto
Description: The Pieropan sweet wines are masterpieces. The Passito della Rocca is made from a blend of 2/3 Sauvignon and 1/3 Riesling Italico, dried until the middle of December and then fermented in barrique. The wine is voluptuous with flavours of apricots mingling with the honeyed fruit. If Nino Pieropan weren't a winemaker, he'd be a watchmaker, says Franco Allegrini, It is because of his attention to the small details of white wine making that his wines are so outstanding. Pieropan himself says that his quality derives from doing a series of small things right, from the moment you pick up the secateurs to the time the cork goes into the bottle. Pieropan's quality, rather unusually for a producer of white wines, is attributable largely to the work undertaken on the estate's 30 hectares of vineyard. He then ensures that his work in the cellar retains and amplifies the quality and style provided by the vineyard. (6 x 50 cl)
