Reviews
Rosé 2017 Vintage – Light pink with a hint of salmon oil hues. Aromas and flavours of light red fruits with cherry and cranberry leading, suggestions of raspberry and a light herb note adding flavour. Dry with
plenty of acidity, refreshing and delicate.
Sauvignon Blanc ‘Boulder Rows’ 2015 Vintage – Pronounced nose of honey, lime marmalade, kiwi, pink grapefruit, cold smoke and baking spices from oak fermentation. Full-bodied palate with sweet herb, tropical fruit, preserved lemon and peach moments: plenty of acidity and flavours, allied to a lovely silky texture — balanced , well made and very toothsome indeed!
Sauvignon Blanc 2016 Vintage – Concentrated sauvignon blanc with passionfruit and ripe tree fruit flavours contrasting with grassy, mineral and gooseberry flavours. The wine achieves an attractive sweet-and-sour tension, with vibrant acidity helping drive a lengthy finish. Very impressive.

Food Match
Our Late Harvest Riesling is luscious with delicious marmalade, honey and apricot characters and so it compliments creamy desserts and cheeses, Christmas cake or mince pies. Our lightly sweet dessert wine also pairs well with spicy foods like Indian and Southeast Asian cuisine.
Try with: Cheese or lemon cake, creme brûlée, panna cotta, Christmas mince pies or Christmas cake
Cheesy match: creamy brie or camembert, soft goats cheese or harder cheeses with a 'swiss flavour'.
Helpful tip
Dessert wines are meant to be enjoyed in small glasses and treasured. Lighter stickies like the Tupari Late Harvest Riesling are refreshingly sweet; perfect for a hot day. Many of these wines pair well with spicy foods like Indian and Southeast Asian cuisine. Or, use as an aperitif with a pâté and cheese board as your guests arrive.
