As you might expect from this special co-ferment of Riesling, Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer, this wine has a beautiful floral nose and array of fruit characters including red apple, lime and white peach. The palate is dry with intense flavours and a lovely mineral character, particularly from the Riesling component. All three varieties make their presence felt with the Riesling providing an acid focus, the Pinot Gris giving a lushness to the mid-palate and the Gewurztraminer bringing weight and a little phenolic structure.
This fragrant wine is perfect for those seeking a fleshy, succulent mid-palate that finishes with dry crisp acidity, leaving your taste buds craving more. Whether you’re enjoying it on your own or sharing it with friends, Lawson’s Dry Hills Ranu is the perfect choice for any occasion.
REVIEWS
We’re glad to see Cameron liking the Ranu as much as we do!
Lawson’s Dry Hills Ranu 2023, Marlborough – 93 points – Cameron Douglas
‘Ranu’ is a co-fermentation of Pinot Gris, Riesling and Gewürztraminer delivering a bouquet of complexity and freshness. Each variety gives an equal power and intensity of flavours on the palate from the ripe baked pear of Gris, lemon and apple of Riesling and floral spicy top notes of Gewürz’. A silky texture touches the palate then the spice and acid line from each variety layers in a salivating mouthfeel. Drinking perfectly now and through 2029.
