About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of RieslingRippling with rich flavour and piercing acidity; it really lands on point, with fresh pear, apple and lime fruits, lifting floral. Finishes clean and precise. Masterful.

Light bodied white wines have a water-light mouthfeel. Often very pale to light colour.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

It's the second level of Helm riesling (the trophy-winning Premium riesling sells for $45), but this Classic Dry has also received multiple awards in recent years. Straw-green, it has fragrant lime and apple blossom aromas, then an intense, long and immediately balanced palate. Yet another success for Helm. Drink while it's more expensive sibling matures in bottle.
