Sugar Loaf Marlborough Riesling 2019 $21

Fresh from scooping a coveted gold medal at the NZ International Wine Show, this riot of a riesling from Sugar Loaf has us roaring for more-ing.  Kate Acland is both the owner and the winemaker and she’s also a hurricane of a businesswoman and a young mum to boot.  Kate’s got no time for foolishness, foppery or flaccid fruit.  This riesling is a triumph of magic mandarin and luscious lime notes, taut acidity and a twang of apple on the finish.  Roast kumara and pear salad?  Please!
