Seifried Estate Sweet Agnes Riesling (half bottle) 2021

This irresistible 95pt dessert wine, with all its Trophies, Golds and high scores every vintage, is the pride of Hermann Seifried. He was a grape growing pioneer, who arrived in New Zealand’s South Island from Austria, via Germany and South Africa, in 1969. He met and married Kiwi lass Agnes Wilkins, and they soon realised their shared dream of growing grapes. 1976 was their maiden vintage and, over 40 years on, the Seifrieds are racking up countless awards with the help of the second generation. Sweet Agnes is pure, late-harvested Riesling crafted from naturally ‘raisined’ grapes from the stony soils of their Eden Road vineyard. Boasting a total of 13 trophies and 29 Golds since launch, it's a delight on its own or with creamy fruit tart.
