TASTING NOTE
Highly aromatic, the fifth release in our Number Series features a ‘fruit salad’ nose of white peach, ripe citrus, quince, and honeydew melon, alongside subtle notes of honeycomb, white daisy, and musk. Demi-sec in style, the Süsser Riesling balances bursting stonefruit and juicy ripe apple flavours with a generous mouthfeel and telltale fresh acidity.
FOOD PAIRING
Sweet-savoury Chèvre tartelette with new season vegetables, cut fruit, and chicken liver mousse; Vietnamese coconut broth with spicy caramel pork and fragrant herbs.
