Reed Amplitude Waitaki Riesling 2024
$45.00 inc. GST
Tasting Note: “I met Ian Dent in 2023 around a fire pit on a cold dark night with a sky filled with stars. He told me he had the oldest living Riesling vineyard in Waitaki Valley and of course my ears perked up and I wanted in! He and Helen also grow Chardonnay for Valli Wines and that night Ian said he was going to sell. My mouth moved faster than my heart when I said, “I’ll take all the Riesling next year, please save the Riesling!” So when I arrived this year I was determined to make something so special to capture the insane acidity and chalkiness of this site that it would be a time capsule for its last vintage as Riesling. This wine is so special to me because it represents my undying love for this region and the humans that grow the grape gold that allow me to love what I do and what I make in a way that feels magical.” – Sierra Reed
