This wine is named in honour of New Zealand's Southern Alps, known locally as the Main Divide, which lies to the west of the Waipara region. The moist climate here often encourages botrytis, and a small portion of botrytized grapes have been included in this Riesling to provide a hint of nutty richness to the core of citrus and stone fruit flavours. An intriguing twist, yet one that perfectly suits the off-dry, Alsace-influenced style.
