At my earlier hospitality gig at Suryagarh in Rajasthan, India, I observed that numerous our worldwide company ordered and drank numerous Riesling. As a part of my job entertaining them, I bought to pattern a wide range of wines and alongside the best way, I noticed that I appreciated Riesling as properly.
Then, a good friend of mine ordered a bottle at a resort we have been holidaying at in Delhi and one bottle was two and the each of us couldn’t fathom simply how scrumptious this specific Riesling was. In fact, after the very fact, neither of us might recall precisely which Riesling the 2 of us had loved a lot!
Riesling shouldn’t be 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 enchantment 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 relationship again a whole lot of years they usually produce, like most vineyards, a wide range 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” choice 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 potential that extra will probably be written about this one, as time goes on. For now, this wine is crisp and punchy, as is to be anticipated. In contrast to the German Riesling, it’s much more tart, dry and acidic. A brilliant-chilled glass of that is a lot 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 in all probability wouldn’t have needed to attempt different Rieslings, however that’s a private opinion. Fortunately, everybody’s palate differs, and I are likely to favor 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 together with me, it’s almost not possible to not open it straight away!
Personally, I’d pair this with savory meals like fish (a comforting Cod involves thoughts), even crimson meat like creamy pork, and I’m salivating interested by ingesting this alongside blue cheese!
