Riesling Block 1 2002

Felton Road, tasting note (feltonroad.com – produktside feltonroad.com, hentet 2026-10-19): 2002 Felton Road Riesling Block 1 – område: Bannockburn (Central Otago); drue: Riesling. Enkeltmark ifølge arket: The Elms Block 1 (The Elms vineyard). Producentens noter (engelsk): Vintage & vinification: Riesling from Block 1 was hand harvested late April after a warm dry autumn. All grapes were whole bunch pressed to minimise phenolic pick-up and retain flavour intensity. Fermented with indigenous (or “wild’) yeast producing more complex aromas and flavours and enhanced mouthfeel. 2002 is our second bottling of a Block 1 Riesling. Bouquet & Palate Exotic aromas of tropical fruits and fully ripe stonefruit. 100% clean Riesling fruit (no botrytis influence) and 50g/L residual sugar, makes this a unique style of wine similar to a German Spatlese or Auslese. Cellaring Although pleasant drinking now, expect complexities to develop after several years of cellaring.
