Hartenberg Tenacity Riesling 2019
Hartenberg Tenacity Riesling 2019
Winsome aromas of quince, ripe melon, roses and frangipani on the nose. The palate displays layers upon layers of citrus, peaches and honey balanced by a flinty, crisp acidity that lingers.
One of only three noble white grape varieties globally. It has the smallest bunches and berries of all white varietals, thereby imparting immense flavourand concentration to the resultant wines. Added to this, is the distinction that few other white varietals are able to mature to their betterment, for decades, like the best global examples of Riesling are able to.
The Tenacity Riesling is made from grapes picked at dawn, then fermented dry in small, old French oak barrels and left to mature on the lees for 12 months. It erupts from the glass with floral notes and chalky minerality. On the palate, it reveals a zesty lemon sorbet character, a divinely creamy texture and long lingering finish. Only 519 bottles were produced of this stunning wine!
