Wine of the Week – Insight Riesling €16.99 by Suzi Redmond
Insight Riesling 2012
An elegant wine made by Eveline Fraser formerly of Cloudy Bay, a winemaker with a keen eye for detail. Every step is carefully managed and this is a beautiful example of a Riesling that expresses the terrior with refinement.
On the nose this wine is delightfully aromatic with aromas of juicy citrus, tropical fruits and honeysuckle as well as touch of beeswax.
The palate is stunning so smooth and elegant with flavours of nectarines, ginger, lemon blossom and chalky tones. It has lovely minerality that balances the fruit with a medium body.
This wine is delicious on its own or with shellfish, sushi, pork and some Asian dishes.
Available from O’Brien’s Wines €16.99
