Product Notes

The Villa Maria Reserve Noble Riesling Botrytis Selection is a spectacular New Zealand wine, characterised by its intense sweetness and rich flavours. The distinct Botrytis influence bestows upon it notes of honey, apricot, and ripe citrus fruits, expertly balanced with a refreshing acidity. The elegant undertones of spice and subtle complexity lend this high-profile wine an irresistible allure. Best served slightly chilled, this Riesling shines particularly alongside desserts and strong cheeses. Its delectable depth and lingering finish impress any discerning palate, making the Villa Maria Reserve Noble Riesling a veritable celebration of taste.

Tasting Notes

Producing Botrytis Selection Riesling is comparative to the transition of an "ugly duckling" of dried Botrytis fruit into a "beautiful swan" of densely concentrated dessert wine. The 2016 Reserve Nobel Riesling offers candied citrus peel, toffee, apricot, honeysuckle and ginger spice on the nose. Fresh acidity and pithy phenolics create a deceptively lively and fresh palate. Flavours are layered with spice, florals, orange marmalade and zippy acid backbone.
