2002 West Brook Blue Ridge Late Harvest Riesling Marlborough New Zealand 375ml

The 2002 West Brook Blue Ridge Late Harvest Riesling is a rare New Zealand dessert wine from Marlborough, crafted in an off-dry style that’s both vibrant and charming. Based on a firsthand tasting note from the time, here’s what you can expect:

Nose: Aromas of citrus, Granny Smith apple, and honeysuckle, with a subtle thread of honey and ginger emerging as it opens.

Palate: Crisp and balanced, featuring citrus and stone fruit flavors with a hint of honeyed spice. The acidity is lively, giving it a refreshing lift.

Finish: Spectacularly long, with a clean, mineral-driven close that leaves the palate tingling.
