Fervor Dokta Nova Riesling 2021

Don’t expect the pure pristine riesling when you open this wine. It gets some interesting treatment including fermentation in older oak for some of the fruit. But what you get is a wine of enormous interest and engagement from that first sniff, right through the long and intensely flavoured palate. There’s an underlying citrus stone fruit thing happening on the palate with a lift of creamy red apple skin on the nose. Finish is crisp and dry with a slightly savoury character.
