WINE DESCRIPTION
Spy Valley Single Vineyard Riesling is a captivating wine meticulously crafted by Spy Valley Wines, sourced from three distinct single vineyards in the heart of New Zealand's iconic Marlborough region. These vineyards contribute their unique terroir to the wine's extraordinary character. Handpicked Riesling grapes from these sites undergo a carefully orchestrated winemaking process, preserving their zesty acidity and highlighting their aromatic purity.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
It is a sensory delight that begins with a captivating bouquet of citrus blossoms, green apple orchards in bloom, and subtle hints of white flowers from the Johnson Vineyard.On the palate, it offers a harmonious fusion of zesty lime and crisp Granny Smith apples from the Johnson's Block, complemented by a touch of sweetness that dances on the taste buds. The finish, influenced by the Outpost Vineyard, is remarkably long and memorable, leaving behind the juicy essence of ripe apricots and a distinctive mineral complexity.
