Huia Riesling

2008 Huia Riesling, Marlborough.
Intense wine although the flavours build gradually toward a lingering finish. Mineral, lime and a suggestion of floral flavours. Weighty riesling with subtle acidity that gives structure without inflicting any pain.

Claire and Mike Allan at Huia deliver plenty of Riesling chutzpah on the nose of this wine: lifted limey florals and a dash of white pepper. A crisp, clean and well-ordered style. Medium-dry.

2004 Huia Marlborough Riesling
New Zealand's cool climate wineries continue to produce outstanding wines, including this bone-dry white from Huia Vineyards. Its wonderfully complex, flinty aroma entices to a dry minerality with a citrusy edge and adequate acidity. All in all, it's an attractive wine at a great price for before and during a meal that includes shellfish, cream sauces, poultry and soft cheeses.
