True and Daring

This is Riesling on the Richter Scale

True & Daring is true to one grape and daring enough to take on Riesling...and only Riesling....as the one wine we produce. This is Riesling on the Richter scale: true, intense and serious. Aged to perfection at the winery, True & Daring shows Riesling’s classic, complex secondary aromas and flavors.

Dare to try...

Honey and orange on the nose – on the palate orange and peach. Fuller in style but still light in body.

Loved (the) aromatics, minerality…very well made.

Loved (the) focus, wonderful flavor. Long, intense finish.

Complexity, impressive mineral notes. Would love to drink a glass, not just taste it.

International wine challenge U.K.

Nice richness to mid-palate, surprising minerality and really long finish. Really shows that NZ can make world-class Riesling.

…a delightful Riesling with an old world profile. It has a good concentration yet elegant with lovely finish. It was one of my favorite wines of 9 blind tasting at the Porter House.

….the palate was dry with high acidity and flavors of petrol, citrus and a hint of honey lingering in the long finish.

A lot of things going on in this wine that we did not experience in the others…so layered and intriguing to drink…delicious and will be enjoyed by those lucky enough to taste it.

Forward, fruity nose; felt like a New World Wine; very clean and balanced.
