WALT LØ Alcohol Riesling
Walter S. Siegel established himself as a vineyard owner in 1897. It wasn’t until 1937 that the Siegel wines were known in the UK, when his son Hans formed an unusual alliance with English cricketer Ian Peebles. Hans honoured his father by naming this wine after him. And, so, the Walt Riesling was born.
At last a really good alcohol free wine! This is Riesling with all its variety-specific fruitiness, like peaches, mineral notes and a fresh, lively character. Try it with fish, seafood or white meat or even with red meats and game! Of course, it’s also very drinkable by itself!
Tikves Smederevka
A pale lemon wine delivering tropical and stone fruit aromas underpinned by a streak of zesty citrus. Beautifully balanced on the palate with crisp and refreshing fruit flavours through to a clean, vibrant finish.

Quite fragrant aromas with a hint of honey and then refreshing on the palate with juicy pears, apricots and limes. Balanced by wonderful acidity and intense minerality, this is a classic, slightly off dry Riesling from the Mosel region.
We love to pair this with seafood Thai dishes that have a little spice, like a sweet chilli dipping sauce.

This single vineyard is grown on the steepest north west facing slopes on the estate. The four noble varieties of Alsace; Gewurztraminer, Muscat, Pinot Gris and Riesling are planted side-by-side. Handpicked in one day, Vin de terroir is the style. On the palate the wine is balanced and round. There is a perceived sweetness.
Mountford Estate Pure Riesling
The grapes were grown on the deep gravels of the Waipara Valley, hand selected chilled overnight before being whole bunch pressed. Waipara’s dry mid-autumn during 2010 meant botrytis did not develop in the Riesling vineyards. As a result we have lime and lemon zest on the nose with a pure acid to finish.

Blank Bottle Jan Niemand
From a very special echalas trained Riesling vineyard above a small tributary named Jan Niemand – just 400 bottles made! This labour intensive style of pruning and training is most commonly found on the steep slopes of the Mosel and the Northern Rhone, where the vine is trained up a single pole like a staircase (hence the label!). It’s labour intensive and costly, but known for producing phenomenal quality of fruit, and in turn, wines of distinction, just as we have here. Quite heady and floral on the nose, with a stoniness too, mango and tangerine and lime zest, with a bit of weight on the palate and long, dry, mouth-watering palate.
Domaine Bott-Geyl Grand Cru Schoenenbourg
Jean-Christophe Bott concentrates on low yields, using natural and minimal techniques. There are just six hectares of grand cru vineyards, the wines are organic and biodynamic. Amazing with seafood. Amazing on its own too actually.
