Tim & Judy Finn planted their first vineyards at Neudorf in the late seventies, a time of rejuvenation and renaissance in the New Zealand wine industry. The vineyard is run organically on north facing Moutere gravels, and their ethos of minimal intervention extends into the winery. Winemaker Todd Stevens continues the focus on wines with textural interest and finesse. Neudorf is regarded as one of the country's top small wineries.
Tasting Note: This wine is beautifully entwined from the very start. On the nose and rolling into the palate ruby grapefruit, lemon grass and bouquets of green and white florals. This racy, crisp, intelligent wine is tightly bound with a core of minerality and refreshing acidity. There is an elegant juiciness to this Riesling that is simple begging for kingfish sashimi, lemon tart or 5’s to roll around on a hot summer's afternoon.
