Toasty, but backed up by solid black-cherry fruit that fills the mouth with a touch of creaminess. The dark fruit flavors persist well into the finish where they are joined by a hint of mint and smoke.

A plump, round Riesling with honeyed pineapple aromas, Muddy Water’s James Hardwick is made from nonbotrytized fruit so it retains a wonderfully clear citrus character. Melon and pineapple flavors give it some fat, but the long finish is dominated by peals of lime-ridden fruit.

Based on these tastings, 2000 must have been a great vintage for the eastern coast of NZ’s South Island. Here’s another top-notch Chard, this one loaded with buttered, toasted whole-wheat bread and vanilla custard, spiked with tropical fruit and citrus. It’s rich but not heavy, with a finely etched finish and ample structure.

Muddy Water’s 2007 James Hardwick Riesling is made in a ripe, off-dry style, marrying high (for Riesling) alcohol of 13% with considerable residual sugar (16 g/l). The result is a medium-bodied wine combining subtle mineral and lime shadings and lingering sweetness balanced by tart acids.

Crisp and relatively high in acidity, but that’s partially offset by soft, supple tannins. Tangy cherry flavors pick up meaty, leathery nuances. Imported by Downunder Imports, LLS.
