On The House Riesling – 30 Bottle Wine Kit

On The House Riesling is a dry white wine with plenty of citrus-fruit flavours on the palate and lovely floral aromatics. A Riesling which shows all the hallmarks of the classic Alsace style, elegant but with a certain weight and richness which is balanced by a brisk finish.

Riesling is a bit of an enigma; ethereal, floral and enchanting, Riesling is also one of the world’s hardiest grape varieties, with a high level of frost resistance meaning it thrives in some of the coolest climate wine regions. This aromatic grape variety makes some of the world’s finest white wines in a vast variety of styles, the best of which will age brilliantly, turning from floral, lime aromas and flavours to intriguing developed aromas of kerosene.
