KWV Cape Riesling 2003

This wine has a youthful pale straw colour. Whilst not highly aromatic, the aromas are fresh and clean and suggest good ripeness with sweet hay, green herbs and dainty, floral fragrances. A brisk clean palate with a pleasantly balanced structure.

Enjoy young with pork, smoked fish, smoked poultry and smoked sausages.
