2023 'The Falcon' Riesling, Lake Chalice Wine Republic

2024 'The Falcon' Riesling, Lake Chalice

Marlborough, New Zealand

Citrus Glide

This is off-dry Marlborough Riesling with bright citrus, floral lift and a lovely mineral snap. Lime zest, sweet orange, green apple and white blossom lead the nose, followed by lemon sherbet, wet stone and a gentle honeyed edge. It feels vivid and aromatic, but not sugary or heavy; the freshness keeps everything clean and lively.

On the palate, it is juicy, zesty and beautifully balanced, with ripe citrus fruit, satiny texture and a crisp mineral finish. The touch of sweetness softens the acidity and makes the wine incredibly moreish, while the bright lime and orange notes keep it refreshing. A brilliant bottle for anyone who wants a white with lift, charm and a little sweetness, especially with spice, seafood or sunshine.

For when
A spicy dinner needs a bright, cooling white.

Pairs with
Thai green curry, Vietnamese salads, sushi, scampi, blue cod, grilled prawns, pork belly, goat’s cheese, spicy noodles or citrus-dressed salads.

Lake Chalice’s Falcon range is the signature heart of the estate, named after New Zealand’s native Kārearea falcon, which appears on every bottle. This Riesling captures the range at its most refreshing: pure Marlborough fruit, crisp acidity and an off-dry balance that makes it both expressive and easy to enjoy. It is a smart choice for anyone looking beyond Sauvignon Blanc but still wanting that clean New Zealand brightness

Lake Chalice was established in 1989 with a vision of producing internationally recognised wines from the heart of the Marlborough region.

New Zealand’s native falcon, the ‘Karearea’, is proudly displayed on every bottle of Lake Chalice wine. Karearea favour the remote mountains and foothills of the upper Awatere and Wairau valleys and these valleys are home to Lake Chalice’s three unique vineyard sites. Each vineyard has a diverse microclimate, biodiversity and terroir which are seamlessly translated into multi award winning wines by talented winemaker Chloe Gabrielsen. Taking a boutique approach she handcrafts parcels of fruit from single vineyards into elegant, aromatic, fruit driven wines and has garnered a global reputation of outstanding quality. Certified ‘Sustainable Winegrower of New Zealand’.

The grapes underwent a long, cool fermentation under temperature controlled conditions in stainless steel tanks. Fermentation was arrested in order to create an off- dry style and lower alcohol.
