Originating in the Rhine region in Germany, this classic, versatile white grape can be used to produce quality dry and sweet wines. Sweet Riesling wines are typically deeply yellow coloured, rich, with crisp flavours of peach and ripe apples. Dry Rieslings are pale-straw coloured, with citrus flavours such as lime and meyer lemons. Riesling's reputation as a classic grape means it is mostly used in varietal wines rather than blends.
