Seifried Estate

Seifried Estate Sweet Agnes Riesling 37.5cl

£19.00

Luscious sweet Riesling from the pioneering Seifried estate in Nelson, just next door to Marlborough. The region boasts 2,400 hours of sunshine a year, bringing amazing intensity and complexity to this fabulous, double-Gold, rich, honeyed white.

This utterly irresistible dessert wine, with all its Trophies, Golds and Double Golds every vintage, is the pride of Hermann Seifried. He was a grape growing pioneer, who arrived in New Zealand’s South Island from Austria, via Germany and South Africa, in 1969. He met and married Kiwi lass Agnes Wilkins, and they soon realised their shared dream of growing grapes. 1976 was their maiden vintage and, over 40 years on, the Seifrieds are racking up countless awards with the help of the second generation. Sweet Agnes is pure, late-harvested Riesling crafted from naturally ‘raisined’ grapes from the stony soils of their Eden Road vineyard. Boasting a total of 13 trophies and 28 Golds since launch, it's a delight on its own or with apricot tart.
