At my earlier hospitality gig at Suryagarh in Rajasthan, India, I observed that numerous our worldwide friends ordered and drank numerous Riesling. As a part of my job entertaining them, I bought to pattern quite a lot of wines and alongside the best way, I noticed that I appreciated Riesling as nicely.
Then, a buddy of mine ordered a bottle at a lodge we had been holidaying at in Delhi and one bottle became two and the each of us couldn’t fathom simply how scrumptious this explicit Riesling was. In fact, after the actual fact, neither of us may recall precisely which Riesling the 2 of us had loved a lot!
Riesling shouldn’t be region-bound, so the wine doesn’t should be produced in Rhine Valley in Germany, to be known as a Riesling and thank Hood for that! Australia, particularly South Australia, produces a large number of wines that attraction to wine-drinkers of all ages and social strata, which is how I landed up tasting this AUD 30 bottle of Seppeltsfield Barossa Polish Hill Single Winery Riesling.
The Seppeltsfield Winery has a wealthy historical past relationship again lots of of years they usually produce, like most vineyards, quite a lot of wines. I used to be unable to search out this explicit selection on their web site – and their web site doesn’t have a “Search” possibility both. There aren’t many on-line sources about this explicit Riesling. I’m undecided why that’s, besides, perhaps, maybe, as a result of it’s a brand new wine from 2023.
Rieslings are recognized for his or her ageing potential, so it’s attainable that extra can be written about this one, as time goes on. For now, this wine is crisp and punchy, as is to be anticipated. In contrast to the German Riesling, it’s much more tart, dry and acidic. An excellent-chilled glass of that is significantly better than a chilly one. At AUD 30, it’s a way more accessible Riesling than most others, whereas nonetheless being a single-vineyard wine. If I had tasted this as my first Riesling, I most likely wouldn’t have wished to strive different Rieslings, however that’s a private opinion. Fortunately, everybody’s palate differs, and I are likely to favor barely sweeter wines over dry ones.
Ideally, I wish to do that one after not less than one other couple of years of bottling however as wine bottles go together with me, it’s practically unimaginable to not open it immediately!
Personally, I’d pair this with savory meals like fish (a comforting Cod involves thoughts), even crimson meat like creamy pork, and I’m salivating desirous about consuming this alongside blue cheese!
