Howard Booysen Riesling 2012

A wine laced with candy-like Mediterranean spicy nuances, corriander, lingering nectarine flavours and racing acidity. These aspects collaborate to form a seductive mouth feel inching closer to the spicy cuisine it requires as seen in the great examples of the traditional Germanic varietal.

Engineered for quality and ageability, this boutique wine would tantalize the senses when accompanied by dishes like Curry, Breyani, Bobotie and most Vegetarian options.
