My favorite of the three vintages is the 2016, which shows classic botrytis notes and a bit less ripeness than the 2015. The 2016 Noble Riesling starts with hints of marmalade and apricot, then quickly adds vibrant citrus notes of bergamot and lime, which give shape to the palate and elongate the finish. A lovely wine.

Much cleaner in style than the 2014, the 2015 Noble Riesling is also more tropically fruity. Guava and mango intermingle with traditional botrytis notes of apricot and marmalade in this medium-bodied, richly sweet wine. There's sufficient purity and balance despite the richness.

The 2009 Noble Riesling gives pronounced aromas of lime cordial, lemon marmalade, acacia honey and warm pineapples. Very crisp, sweet, rich and silken in the mouth, the finish is very long and citrus-sweet. It’s great to drink now and should cellar to 2015+.Although Riverby Estate produces a good Marlborough Sauvignon, the pursuit of high quality Riesling is the focus here.No known USA importer.
