Hukapapa 2007 Riesling Dessert Wine

Early budburst allowed for an earlier start to the season than normal.
Strong early growth and warm, dry conditions during fl owering and
fruit set resulted in a good bunch set. The fi ne, dry weather
conditions continued through the ripening months in February and
March allowing the grapes to develop good fl avour profi les ensuring
crops reached optimum sugar levels for harvesting.
