At my earlier hospitality gig at Suryagarh in Rajasthan, India, I observed that a number of our worldwide company ordered and drank a number of Riesling. As a part of my job entertaining them, I received to pattern quite a lot of wines and alongside the best way, I spotted that I favored Riesling as properly.
Then, a buddy of mine ordered a bottle at a resort we have been holidaying at in Delhi and one bottle become two and the each of us couldn’t fathom simply how scrumptious this specific Riesling was. After all, after the actual fact, neither of us might recall precisely which Riesling the 2 of us had loved a lot!
Riesling is just not region-bound, so the wine doesn’t should be produced in Rhine Valley in Germany, to be referred to 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 courting again tons of of years they usually produce, like most vineyards, quite a lot of wines. I used to be unable to search out this specific selection on their web site – and their web site doesn’t have a “Search” possibility both. There aren’t many on-line assets about this specific Riesling. I’m unsure why that’s, besides, possibly, 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 doable that extra shall be written about this one, as time goes on. For now, this wine is crisp and punchy, as is to be anticipated. Not like 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 desire barely sweeter wines over dry ones.
Ideally, I want to do that one after at the least one other couple of years of bottling however as wine bottles go along with me, it’s almost unimaginable to not open it straight away!
Personally, I might pair this with savory meals like fish (a comforting Cod involves thoughts), even purple meat like creamy pork, and I’m salivating occupied with ingesting this alongside blue cheese!
