Pegasus Bay Riesling Aged Release 2015

13% abv

Vol- 75cl

Deep straw with golden hues, a bouquet of toastiness and development. Aromas of baked limes and apples, honeysuckle and honeyed orchard fruits, there’s a floral quality and seductive perfume of mineral and manuka. A delicious, fine silky textured wine touches the palate with a core of lime, apple and lemon fruit flavours accentuated by the acid line. Just dry with just a light tickle of sweetness, then flavours of honeysuckle and white spice. Balanced, lengthy and resoundingly delicious.
95 points, Cameron Douglas MW

Good stock

The Donaldson Family, who have been seriously involved in viticulture and winemaking for over 40 years, have been setting aside each year a few cases of their key varieties - Riesling and Pinot Noir – with the intention of releasing them 10 years later; this practice has been taking place every vintage since 2006 with a release date of around August each year. The inspiration for this came from the desire to offer customers the opportunity to taste these wines in full maturity, something that is relatively rare these days. Pegasus Bay consider ten years to be a very satisfying time to experience these wines with the added complexities of bottle age, while still offering years of good drinking ahead. Pegasus Bay is an accredited member of the NZWG sustainable viticulture programme and firmly believe in the principles of using natural methods to counteract pests and diseases, rather than the application of unnecessary pesticides and herbicides. Structure and texture are hallmarks of the estate’s highly individual wines.
