Pegasus Bay
ENCORE Noble Riesling 2017 375ml

We hand-picked riesling from the same vines multiple times in late autumn, choosing only the most beautifully noble botrytic fruit on each occasion.  Further hand selection was done in the winery retaining only the best berries.

On release, it has a striking bright gold appearance.  A plethora of lush and decadent aromas delight the nose.  Ripe melon, quince, honey, and perfume are flanked by deeper impressions of crème brulée, marmalade, lemon meringue and sweet spice.   The palate is unctuous and concentrated, with a multi layered and palatial mouthfeel.  Complementing this perfectly is a seam of lively and refreshing acidity, adding structure and paving the way for a long, pleasurable finish.
