Sumo Cat Riesling

Combines dense flavours of rich apricots, peaches and pears with knife-edge acidity and razor-sharp crispness.

Aromas:

  • This Riesling greets the nose with an inviting bouquet of ripe peach, apricot, and a hint of citrus blossom. There are underlying notes of honey and a touch of minerality that add complexity to its aromatic profile.

Palate:

  • On the palate, the Sumo Cat Riesling is dry with a luscious mouthfeel. Flavours of juicy peach and apricot are prominent, supported by a refreshing acidity that balances the sweetness. Citrus notes, particularly lemon and lime, add a zesty lift, while subtle hints of honey and a light mineral finish provide depth and structure.

Food Pairing:

  • Spicy Cuisine: Excellent with spicy Asian dishes like Thai curry, Szechuan chicken, or spicy sushi rolls. The wine's sweetness and acidity can tame the heat while complementing the flavors.
  • Seafood: Perfect with shellfish such as shrimp, crab, or scallops, particularly when prepared with a citrus or light butter sauce.
  • Poultry: Pairs well with roasted or grilled chicken, especially when accompanied by fruit-based sauces like apricot glaze or citrus marinades.
  • Cheese: Enjoy with semi-soft cheeses like Gouda, Havarti, or a mild blue cheese. The wine’s sweetness and acidity provide a delightful contrast to the richness of the cheese.
  • Fruits: Complements fresh fruit platters, especially those featuring stone fruits like peaches and nectarines, as well as citrus and melon.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Serve chilled at around 6-8 degrees Celsius to enhance its refreshing qualities and balance between sweetness and acidity. This wine is perfect for casual gatherings, summer picnics, or as an aperitif to start a meal.

"So great to be able to receive a regular delivery of good wine rather than the usual 12 bottle case sold by most 'wine clubs' "

- Terry Wharton Hood -
