This wine is characterized by...
- While Sauvignon Blanc is New Zealand's predominant grape variety, Pegasus Bay focuses on Riesling.
- North Canterbury/Waipara has a cool climate and large temperature differences between day and night, making it ideal for growing Riesling.
- Pegasus Bay's Riesling is an off-dry style wine characterized by the sweetness of honey and concentrated fruit.
- When pairing it with food, it goes well with fruity chicken dishes, spicy Asian dishes, as well as blue cheese and sweets.
- It can be enjoyed for more than a week after opening.
Concentrated sweetness of Riesling
Many New Zealand wineries produce Sauvignon Blanc as their main white wine.
After all, it is an undeniable fact that Sauvignon Blanc is the country's signature variety and the one most in demand in the global market.
However, this is the theory in Marlborough, a major producing area.
If we look at other wine-producing regions, they don't necessarily make Sauvignon Blanc their signature wine.
This wine is one from a winery that has made choices that go against theory.
The location is North Canterbury/Waipara, near Christchurch on the South Island. The winery's name is Pegasus Bay, the most important winery in the area (it also visited Bokumo in September 2024).
Pegasus Bay, which was selected as one of the top 5 wineries in New Zealand by Robert Parker, focuses on Riesling as a white grape.
North Canterbury/Waipara, where they are based, is relatively cool, with large temperature differences between day and night, and dry autumns.
The low risk of rain during harvest allows the grapes a very long ripening period.
The region is well suited to growing grapes that have a concentrated flavor while still maintaining a moderate acidity, making them ideal for growing highly ripe grapes.
Riesling thrives in cool conditions with plenty of sunlight for long periods of time.
Pegasus Bay is a winery that specializes in off-dry Rieslings with the sweetness of honey and concentrated fruit.
This wine has won numerous awards in the past and is considered New Zealand's leading Riesling.
It's best to drink it on its own, well chilled, but if you want to pair it with food, it's best to choose something that makes the most of its fruity flavor.
for example···
- Fried chicken with apricot sauce
- Sweet and sour pork with pineapple
- Sauteed Pork and Apple
It also goes well with spicy dishes from Thailand and Vietnam, such as green curry, banh xeo, and sweet and spicy stir-fried shrimp.
If you want to pair it with sweets, it goes well with tarte tatin and blue cheese cheesecake.
It is also delicious when paired simply with honey, like drizzling it over blue cheese like Roquefort or Gorgonzola.
I think it will taste great for at least a week after opening.
About the Winery "Pegasus Bay"
Pegasus Bay is a winery that represents Waipara, a region in the Canterbury region.
The winery was founded in 1986 by Ivan Donaldson, a neurologist, wine writer and wine judge. He started the winery with his wife Christine, but now the whole family, including their sons, run it.
Waipara has a large daily temperature difference and a dry autumn, which allows the grapes to ripen for a very long time, resulting in grapes that are concentrated with just the right amount of acidity. Pegasus Bay has taken advantage of this favorable climatic condition to build a reputation as an excellent winery for Riesling and Pinot Noir.
Although they are a family-run business, the distinctive wines they produce have earned them acclaim around the world, and they have been selected as one of the top five wineries in New Zealand by renowned wine critic Robert Parker Jr.
Pegasus Bay is also certified by the New Zealand Winegrowers Sustainable Viticulture Programme.
They cultivate grapes using the most natural methods possible, without using any unnecessary pesticides or herbicides, and employ many staff members to perform the precise manual work, ensuring high-quality cultivation management.
About the Canterbury/Waipara region
Canterbury/Waipara is located on the east coast of New Zealand's South Island and is characterized by a cool, dry climate.
North Canterbury, which covers the country's largest plain, is also one of the world's leading lamb-producing regions, and the wineries scattered throughout the region offer a wide variety of wines.
Waipara, which can be reached from Christchurch on a day trip, produces premium wines such as Riesling and Pinot Noir and is a popular tourist destination.
