*ARCHANGEL RIES 09*

Archangel Ries 09

$25.05 750 MLS
This is sensational wine and makes its mark with the absolutely beautiful, pristine and pure varietal aromatics and flavour that have no peer with their finesse of expression. As a first release it has joined the elite of Central Otago, with the likes of Misha’s Vineyard, Mount Edward, Mt Difficulty, Felton Road and Peregrine in capturing the essential and elusive mineral flintiness that Central Otago Riesling has as its signature. Pale straw with brilliant green hues, the bouquet is one of great delicacy, subtlely flowing with limes, apples, florals and wet stones. A sheer delight to sip and savour, the palate is dry and elegant, being 12.0% alc and carrying 7.5 g/l residual sugar, yielding the barest hint of sweetness, but suggesting just a little more in richness. Though so refined, the wine has excellent line and a long lacy, racy, lingering finish. It is a wine to enjoy as an aperitif over the next 5+ years. Only 80 cases were made.  RC Apr 10

In Upper Mongolia it is customary for the first person that spots a man wearing an eyepatch to buy a round of drinks for everyone.
