Riesling
36 Bottles is a boutique producer based in Central Otago, owned by Douglas Brett and Jane Young. The quirky name comes from their first vintage in 1999, when they made wine out of a garage and produced just 36 bottles. Their Riesling is a beautiful pale lime green in the glass and shows lifted citrus, honeysuckle and floral notes that lead to deeper tertiary notes from the time the wine has spent in bottle. The palate has a medium weight; great length and elegant acidity. A great Riesling that punches above its weight and gives an insight into just how good Otago Riesling can be.
Central Otago has great potential with white wines as this dry Riesling from Amisfield Winery shows. It's one of three Rieslings produced by this well known winery and is a top seller for us here at Regional, not least because it's a totally dry style which appeals more to most wine lovers.
Fortunately, none of the flavour is sacrificed because of its dry linear, fresh acidity and crisp style.
This is a super refreshing dry wine made from one of the world's greatest, most under rated white grapes. Riesling. A must try for white wine lovers.
Grannysmith apple and lemon aromatics define this excellent Central Otago Riesling. This is a medium-sweet wine with well balanced acidity and a long, complex finish.
This Riesling was made from fruit grown on mature vines, in the limey clay loams of the Waipara Valley floor ? our younger vines grow well on the lighter gravel soils. Harvest is generally late in the season when the Riesling fruit is ripe and clean as this is ideal for development of tangy ripe flavours, while retaining a crisp freshness. These grapes were harvested while cool, then given a long, slow press. The juice was settled, racked and cool fermentation in stainless steel followed. This has produced a full flavoured Riesling with fresh aromas of citrus, and crisp apple along with hints of ginger and spice. These flavours continue into the palate, forming a juicy wine with a perfect balance between sweetness and tangy acidity.
Food Match This Riesling will develop in the cellar for several years, but is equally delicious now with a wide range of foods- seafood and cuisine with Thai and Japanese influences, or as an aperitif with smoked salmon and avocado. Drink this now or cellar for up to eight years.
Black Estate - This Riesling is grown on the rolling slopes of our Damsteep Vineyard. The site's dense clay and mineral limestone provide weight, texture and salivating freshness. A true character.
Edgy by name and by nature, Hellblock Riesling tastes like lime zest, ripe peach and lemon curd in a layered and complex off dry style. The Boneline's evocatively named Hellblock Riesling comes from grapes grown on a windy as hell gravel river terrace in a spot along the Waipara River that gets as hot as hell during summer, with wind to challenge Wellington on a blustery day. This is a stunning RIesling as a result of these difficult climatic factors, which decimate crops so that the grapes that do hang on for dear life provide outstandingly concentrated depths of flavour.
This is a medium dry style with light body and super impressive purity; like smelling a lime zest combined with fresh green grapes, a note of tangerine here, white lily there. Complexity to burn and a beautiful drink, year round, lightly chilled with your favourite friends or person.
One of the great dry Rieslings of North Canterbury, a region with a long dry autumn that typically results in concentrated citrus flavours of ripe lemon zest and notes of green apple, which stretch out to a lingering vibrant finish in this memorably delicious wine. It typically contains 4 grams residual sugar per litre (firmly in the dry camp) each year, including in this new release from the 2019 vintage. The wine is made from grapes harvested at 20.5 brix from low cropping land (2.2 tonnes per hectare). This Riesling is made from a vineyard planted on the Glasnevin Gravels. All grapes are hand picked, whole bunch pressed to stainless steel and fermented with a neutral yeast strain then aged on lees until bottled in late summer following harvest.
This wine drinks beautifully now as a youthful, refreshing dry white and also ages superbly for five to six years, potentially longer in good cellar conditions.
From the winery...
Our Mackenzie William Riesling is named after our eldest grandson. Our Eden Valley Riesling is delicately picked from our longstanding vines planted in the 1960s, and 1980s, and from our cherished, deep-rooted 1890s vines ? believed to be some of the oldest in Australia. Each batch of fruit bestows its unique attributes, creating quintessential Eden Valley citrus and minerally characteristics which our region is so well known for, and a complexity that ensures our dry style?s impressive length of finish.
Zesty and concentrated Riesling from Carrick Winery's stunning certified organic vineyard in Bannockburn, where the elevated site produces grapes with delicious juicy intensity and lingering acidity to balance a light touch of residual sweetness from the grapes. Super concentrated aromas of grapefruit and mandarin add to the stylish, off-dry flavours in this beautifully balanced wine, which is tasty now and will evolve positively for at least another 10 years.
Chard Farm's tasty Riesling is made with grapes grown on the Arena Block in the Viper Vineyard at Parkburn. This vineyard is planted on a steep north facing slope which enhances grape ripening and produces flavours of ripe lemon and concentrated apple and lime. It's lively and light bodied with great depth of flavour adding a surprise deliciousness to this wine. The 2019 Riesling will reward those with the patience to cellar the wine for up to seven years.
Refreshing succulent Hawke's Bay Riesling made from a new-ish 0.2 hectare sliver of vineyard on the coast at Te Awanga, south of Napier and home to Clearview Estate winery.
Juicy, medium dry and full of concentrated ripe lemon and green apple aromas with a long flavoursome finish and super tasty mid palate. A great white for year round refreshing drinking, late afternoon or even at lunch or any time an aperitif is needed.
Tim and Margaret Coney founded Coney Wines on a 16-acre bare paddock in Martinborough more than 25 years ago. Not without much encouragement, the old barren sheep paddock quickly turned into a thriving 24/7 bustle of vine-tending, winemaking, marketing and restauranteuring. With each operation undertaken in the hallowed, self-flagellating Martinborough tradition - by manual labour!
The aim and guiding principles continue today with the ownership mantle of Coney Wines passed to long-time winemaker and daughter Lisa, and son-in-law Rusty in 2022. The Coney legacy of a small family-owned winery producing a range of beautiful wines that go perfectly with food, family and friends remains in place!
This is a sumptuously Riesling with 3.6 g/l of residual sugar and real depth and character made entirely with fruit from the local Martinborough five and a half hectare site.
This tasty dry Riesling comes from the beautiful windswept vineyard owned by Craggy Range in the sweepingly stunning Te Muna Road in Martinborough.
The grapes in this wine were 100% whole bunch pressed and fermented in a combination of stainless steel and large oak cuves with 100% innoculated yeasts.
The wine was matured for four months before bottling. It's fresh, youthful, vibrant and zingy with intense lime and green apple flavour notes, a medium body and long finish. It drinks beautifully now and will age superbly for at least five to six years.
Crater Rim Riesling is medium sweet in style but so beautifully balanced by fresh acidity that it tastes medium dry with great concentration of tropical fruit flavours and a succulent, long finish. It's made with grapes grown on Glasnevin Gravels, one of North Canterbury's golden miles of vineyards.
Winemaker Haydon Good worked for Clemens Busch in the Mosel, from which he says one of his take home pieces of information for making Riesling was to make picking decision on acidity then balance the wine with residual sugar, depending on the season and the acidity. That philosophy comes through bright, fresh and clear in this stunningly good value Riesling.
