Gilbert Wines Alira Riesling

At Gilbert Wines, we’re excited to share the Alira Semi-Sweet Riesling, a lively and charming white that perfectly balances sweetness with a zesty punch of acidity. Nestled in the picturesque Mount Barker sub-region, our winery is driven by a passion for crafting wines that reflect the unique character of our estate. This Riesling is a delightful nod to our founder Bev Gilbert’s love for creating wines that bring joy to the table, blending a classic variety with a playful twist.

In the glass, the Alira Riesling dazzles with a pale straw colour tinged with a hint of green, catching the light with its fresh vibrancy. The nose is a floral parade of jasmine, lemon cordial, and lime, offering an inviting and pretty aroma that hints at the delights to come.

On the palate, this Riesling is a refreshing treat, with flavours of crisp red apple, tangy preserved lemon, and a touch of honey that adds a sweet, smooth layer. There’s a subtle kick of ginger that adds a hint of spice and complexity. The wine’s acidity, while a bit pronounced, gives it a bright and summery feel, balancing the sweetness beautifully. This makes it a versatile choice, perfect for pairing with everything from spicy Asian dishes to a simple cheese platter. Whether you’re celebrating or just enjoying a sunny day, the Alira Riesling is sure to bring a smile to your face. Give it a try and enjoy the fun and freshness in every sip!
