Product Notes

Saint Clair Origin Riesling is a spectacular New Zealand wine, famed for its bright, vigorous characteristics. This stunning Riesling possesses a delicate pale straw colour, with attractive floral and lemon zest aromas. On the palate, it offers refreshing flavours of citrus fruits, honey, and subtle mineral undertones, enhanced by well-balanced acidity that imparts an elegant, dry finish. This particular wine is versatile, pairing well with seafood or on its own as an aperitif. Vintage after vintage, Saint Clair Origin Riesling consistently upholds its reputation for quality, making it a remarkable representative of New Zealand’s renowned wine industry.

Tasting Notes

Fragrant notes of Kaffir lime and mandarin are layered with hints of orange blossom and beeswax. On the palate, distinct minerality and fresh citrus flavours of juicy mandarin, lead to a crisp mid-palate with delicate sweetness and a smooth, off-dry finish.
