Carrick
Josephine Riesling 2023 750ml

A medium-sweet style bursting with lime and mandarin

Josephine is the alternative name given by sailors to the Carrick Bend knot. Josephine, our reserve Riesling, is made from selected parcels of grapes hand-harvested from Arthur’s Vineyard. The sweetest wine of the range, it is a medium-sweet, mosel-esque style.

A vibrant medium-sweet Riesling, delicious alongside south-east Asian dishes, with soft goat cheese or on its own as an aperitif.

Winemaking: Hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed, then fermented using native yeast in tank. The fermentation is brought to a close when an appropriate balance of sugar and acid is found.

"The 2023 Josephine is vibrant, persistent and a joy to taste. Bright fruit notes of orange sherbert, fresh strawberry, mango, lime and a hint of bitter grapefruit mingle on the palate. Balanced by a tingly acid core and a long lingering finish. ." - Winemaker Rosie Menzies
