riesling, clearwater, 2005, new zealand
marlborough may be famous for its sauvignon blanc but the waipara region close to christchurch is now home to many of the best rieslings. here, the long, coolish season allows for long ripening times leading to great complexity of flavour. this is a dry, steely riesling with crisp, limey character with touches of citrus and toast.
