The 2024 Palliser Estate Riesling Martinborough is a vibrant New Zealand white wine from one of the region’s leading producers, showcasing a precise, cool-climate style with purity, freshness and strong mineral character. Crafted in a dry style, it highlights the elegance and intensity that define Martinborough Riesling. The nose is lifted and aromatic, showing fresh lime, green apple and mandarin, layered with white florals and subtle wet stone minerality.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with a crisp, mouthwatering texture and vibrant acidity. Citrus, apple and mineral notes drive the palate, leading to a clean, zesty and persistent finish. The style is dry, energetic and mineral-driven, combining bright fruit with precision and tension - offering both immediate freshness and excellent aging potential.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a benchmark New Zealand Riesling and a great choice for customers who enjoy crisp, citrus-driven whites. Ideal as an aperitif or with food. Drink now or cellar for 5–10 years. Perfect with seafood, oysters, Asian dishes or fresh salads.
