Kleine Zalze Project Z Riesling 2021

Each Kleine Zalze Project Z wine is a singular expression of extraordinary grapes coupled with ever evolving winemaking techniques. The result is an eclectic collection of precious and distinctive wines, produced in very limited quantities. The cool-climate Elgin region provides the fruit for this riveting Project Z Riesling, which displays a steely edge alongside a ripe fruit-core. Grapes were whole bunch pressed to ensure purity of juice, after which fermentation ensued in clay amphorae, where the wine was also aged for 9 months. Chiselled and taut, with upfront aromas of lime and green apple, the low pH provides potential for this wine to age exceptionally well. The acidity will mellow over time to reveal a generous palate laden with typical Riesling aromas of honeysuckle, pear, and beeswax.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
