Plantagenet - Three Lions Riesling 750ml
"Selectively machine harvested in the cool of night, fruit was gently pressed with free-run juice (500L/T) and pressings kept separate. The juice was lightly fined before clarification and fermentation using Riesling-specific yeast strains to accentuate the vineyard’s pure fruit expression. A cool stainless-steel ferment (<15°C) was carried to dryness, followed by racking and retention of light lees with regular stirring to enhance texture and complexity. The final blend was assembled to taste, given a delicate fining, and bottled to preserve freshness and vibrancy.
Appearance: Pale straw.
Aroma: Vibrant rose petal and floral notes lift from the glass, layered with fragrant hints of orange blossom, musk and citrus zest.
Palate: Generous in weight yet beautifully balanced, the palate centres around a bright lime-citrus core with subtle mineral undertones. Lively natural acidity provides structure and drive, carrying the abundant fruit through to a long, clean, and refreshing finish." - Plantagenet
