New Zealand's most popular Riesling! This best-seller consistently wins awards each vintage year. Enjoy striking notes of lime and mandarin and delicious, succulent, juicy sweetness. A vivacious Riesling with succulent citrus blossom, alluring lime and sweet mandarin with a delightfully crisp, refreshing off-dry finish. This Riesling brings together outstanding fruit from two of New Zealand's preeminent Riesling areas - Marlborough & Waipara. The fruit selected from Marlborough adds a textural element, richness, citrus flavours and ageability to the wine, while Waipara gives the fabulous floral aromatics.

A portion of nobly botrytic fruit has produced a distinctive style of wine. It has a core of citrus fruit characters, particularly lemons and limes, but there is also an undercurrent of white fleshed peaches and nectarines. The botrytis has added hints of honeysuckle and also given the wine extra concentration and richness. A seam of natural acidity and minerality flows through the wine and gives it an off-dry finish length and zest.

The Riesling has a lifted nose of lime juice, honey and lemon tea. A touch of sweetness on the palate is balanced by some tangy acid and funky complexity, giving way to an exciting finish, that jumps around in your mouth for longer than you would think possible.

Notes of tangerine, apricot and jasmine white florals. Bright and lively nectarine introduces this wine to the palate. A moderate amount of residual sugar (30g/L) has been retained to balance the clean acidity.

This Riesling stands tall with citrus notes intertwined with white blossom and white fleshed fruit: the palate is dominated by clean linear citrus flavours.

Consistently beautiful wines that are crafted to capture the essence of their origins.

TWR's passion for making and drinking Riesling is based partly on the wide variety of styles that this variety can produce. This Riesling 'M' is designed from the 'vineyard-in' in a medium-dry style and is dangerously drinkable. Lifted aromas of mandarin, pink grapefruit, and white peach follow onto vibrant, ripe flavours of the same with juicy lime with underlying slatey mineral notes. This wine is fine and soft with excellent fruit weight and concentration to counterbalance the mouth-watering acidity.

Established in 1994 and named after the Southern landmark range of the Wither Hills that border the vineyards, Wither Hills has always been dedicated to the philosophy that exceptional wines are created in the vineyard. Now one of New Zealand's most popular brands - Wairau Valley, at it's best. Wither Hills Riesling is dry in style and bursting with flavours of freshly squeezed lemons, citrus and flint with undertones of honey. Riesling is a variety I love because it truly allows for winemaker expression. I'm a keen diver and the fresh citrus flavours in our Wairau Valley Riesling are a stunning match with our local seafood. Matt Large - Wither Hills Winemaker
