Mud House SV The Mound Riesling 2022

Trust your Taste

Juicy lime and lemon make this Waipara Riesling bright and inviting. Delicate sweetness softens the fruit, while mineral acidity keeps the finish fresh and lingering. Try it if you enjoy aromatic whites that balance a sweet touch with a lively citrus edge.

How this wine feels

A little sweetness rounds the middle, then lime-like freshness takes over. It has enough body to feel satisfying without becoming heavy, and very little drying grip. The finish is lively and gently sweet rather than creamy.

The sliders show how strongly each characteristic comes through. Higher does not mean better.
