Coopers Creek Riesling - This wine is bursting with crystal clear aromas of citrus, spice and flowers. On the palate, there is a lemony backbone rounded out with a tiny bit of fruit sweetness. The character of the wine carries through to the direct, pure finish.
Coopers Creek was established by Andrew and Cynthia Hendry in 1980 with an aim of producing the very highest quality wines, reflecting New Zealand's outstanding cool climate viticultural conditions. For the past twenty odd years they have continued to advance their reputation as one of the best performing and most eclectic medium-sized New Zealand wineries.
Winemaking for this Riesling is very hands-off, cool fermentation, no malolactic, no oak, occasional lees stirring, and early bottling to preserve freshness and varietal aroma.
