Lake Wanaka, Otago, South Island, New Zealand
How would you like to go to work and have that as your view? We only wished we'd gone later in the day as the sun would have been out but none the less an impressive view. Rippon is most photographed winery in the world. We started our morning walking the property with Jo and later joined her husband in the cellar with a taste of their 2015 Riesling during the staffs second breakfast...toast and pork sausage. It paired well with the sausage. The 15 Riesling is light bodied, has pure precision and is clean and refreshing. Their cool climate and long growing season allows for long fruit hang time and amazing acidity. The color of their label was chosen from the color of the lake water during certain times of the day. You can kind of see it in this photograph.

Awesome Riesling - best from central in 15 so far - textural spiny lithe and full of tension
