Felton Road Bannockburn Riesling 2022
Our Verdict
As icons go, Felton Road is about as pointy-end as it gets for New Zealand.
A delicate nose of spice, mineral and subtle stone fruit deceives for what is about to come. On first taste, one is struck by the sheer intensity of ripe peach and nectarine that coats the mouth and seamlessly integrates with the residual sugar. It’s a real battle between the profound flavor and residual sweetness that makes it hard to think of it as a sweet wine: the persuasiveness of the flavor takes center stage. A refreshing lick of acidity kicks in to harmonise and allow the complete package to linger for minutes.
"A medium-sweet riesling with sliced pears and lychee fruit. It's medium- to full-bodied with attractive light topical fruit and peaches at the end. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink now." 92 Points, JamesSuckling.com
