Kindeli Blanco 2022
There's something very quenching about this wine, in the same way a tonic is. A blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling but in no way is this wine made to be a typical expression of those varieties. This has tropical fruit aromatics and chalky finish. It's super summery and reveals itself with a moment to sit in the glass.
Kindeli wines are created by Alex Craighead in Nelson, NZ. Alex has slowly been chipping away at the preconceived ideas of what wine is and can be in New Zealand. His experience gained working as a flying winemaker all over Europe has clearly shaped his ideas on how wine should be created. His understanding of the environment in which he works seems to be the driving force of everything he does. Soon to be demeter-certified biodynamic in the vineyards and winery, Alex produces wines with absolutely no chemical inputs or additives. Alex and his Kindeli Wines are recognised around the world for being at the forefront of the natural wine movement.
Organic, unfined, unfiltered, no additives
