Lively and fruit-forward, you'll experience aromas of citrus zest, green apple and spring florals on the palate, an abundance of apple, lemon, lime and white peach. The flavours of this wine will continue to develop over time with underlying beeswax, pine forest, and subtle exotic spice aromatics rewarding patience and adding depth and charm. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA crisp and vibrant dry-style Riesling with great cellaring potential. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRead more about what the judges of the Global Fine Wine Challenge had to say about this wine\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrophy awarded to the Tohu Whenua Awa Riesling 2019 at the Global Fine Wine Challenge 2023 \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TOHU WINES NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49290472620184,"sku":"TOHU-WH-PG","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/2772\/9816\/files\/ea5689_a06b9787d8dd4e3b9e979c427b7a8205_mv2.png?v=1781930558","url":"https:\/\/mtfranklinestate.com.au\/products\/tohu-whenua-awa-single-vineyard-riesling-2019","provider":"Mt Franklin Estate","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
