CLINK!
BRUNCH IS BACK, BABY!
IMMEDIATELY APPEALING
BLAME IT ON THE JUICE
CALL ME BUBBLES, DARLING
The 2020 Riesling from our friends at Ataahua is delicious! It’s ripe, fragrant, and has an immediately appealing bouquet showing lime, spiced apple, orange peel, and subtle honey complexity. The palate delivers excellent focus and juicy fruit intensity, backed by a little sweetness, which is perfectly balanced by refreshing acidity, leading to a lingering tasty finish.
Orange, ice, and no need to be precise – that’s all this AMappropriate cocktail calls for. It’s bang-on, and one leads to another as brunch turns into lunch. The turmeric and ginger base is mellowed out with hand-pressed carrot and orange juices, spiked with cardamom vodka to put pep in your step. Best enjoyed with the sunrise on the horizon at Pink Lady Rooftop.
Alana Wines’ concisely named Bubbles is elegant and delicately expressed. The bouquet shows green apple, nectarine, and grapefruit characters with a hint of floral overtone. It’s finely textured and linear on the palate, offering bright fruit flavours backed by zesty acidity, finishing long and mouthwatering. Sam Kim (Wine Orbit) scored this 90/100 with 4.5/5 stars.
