Urlar Riesling 2011

In homage to its stony origins, this aromatic riesling has an underlying mineral thread throughout.  Aromas include lime zest, ripe feijoa’s, honey and spice which combine beautifully with the soft mid palate texture and persistent finish. Produced to enjoy now, riesling is the perfect aperitif.  It stands up well to lightly spiced tapas, asian food and handles strong cheeses well. 4g/l residual sugar

ABOUT URLAR

"Economic and environmental sustainability are our driving principals"

These practices are about giving life back to the soil and managing the vineyard as a balanced sustainable farming unit. This includes organic practices such as recycling through composts and liquid manures and increasing plant bio diversity through inter-row crops. Our own Highland cow herd provide the manure to drive our composting process.

Using the biodynamic farming and gardening calendar, the rhythmic influences of the sun, moon, planets and stars are recognised and worked where possible.

This commitment has been recognised and rewarded recently when we won the Hills Harvest and Gallagher Innovation Awards.

The result is beautiful, clean, hand crafted wines that have not impacted negatively on the soils as they have been created.
