Huia 2002 Riesling (Marlborough)

Country: New Zealand /
Variety: Riesling Marlborough
Winery: Huia /

The aromas are a refined blend of peaches, pears and citrus fruits, but don’t adequately prepare the taster for the bold, striking flavors that follow. Despite being relatively light-bodied, tropical fruits, stone fruits and citrus cascade across the palate, finishing a touch soft. If more structure becomes apparent as this wine’s “baby fat” recedes, this wine’s rating may prove conservative.
