96 / 100"Impressive purity and power with an ethereal texture. White flowers, lime zest, and glycerol together with an impressive sweet/sour balance that leaves a lingering, refreshing finish. Should develop well with bottle age."

Tasting Notes
Kusuda Wines was established in Martinborough in October 2001 without its own facilities or vineyard. Luckily, I was soon able to secure a lease contract for a small but well established vineyard in Martinborough. With the huge support of my friend Mr. Kai Schubert of Schubert Wines, I was able to start realising my dream of making my very own wine.
A Riesling that's bone-dry, showcasing remarkable purity and power. Lemon blossom and lime intertwine, complemented by a delicate saline-mineral character. The laser-fine acidity accentuates the wine's purity, propelling a lingering finish. This extraordinary wine holds significant cellaring potential.
