Novas Gran Reserva Riesling Organic
Why this is on Broken Compass: Labelled organic, a protected term. Boutinot declare sustainable. Supplier sheet: organic. Supplier sheet: sustainable. Supplier sheet: certified organic.
What to expect
Quietly complex on the nose with fresh lime notes combining with a steely minerality and gentle honeysuckle flora. The palate is mid-weight and off-dry with persistent flavours of lime, there is a natural salinity which gives contrast yet lovely balance. It finishes clean with a lingering flinty character.
