Where German tradition and precision meets the premium, cool climate fruit from the Adelaide Hills.
- The wine expresses white florals at the onset with lemon and lime zest contributing to the aromatics, alongside some delicate yellow peach aromas.
- On the palate, the wine is dry and dominated by citrus and wet stones flavours. Some salinity contributes to the complexity. This is a very refined Riesling with a crisp acidity, nicely balanced by some weight on the palate.
- The winemaking process has remained the same since the first vintage in 2005, where fermentation is allowed to commence naturally using the indigenous yeasts that occur in the vineyard.
- The wine was then held in tank on lees for over 6 months before being bottled. The wine is held back a further 12 months in the bottle or until it is ready to be released.
- The Kanta name is Sanskrit for "beautiful" and "desired".
