Riesling comes in many guises. Few styles of Riesling are more palatable than off-dry wines from Germany. Such is the case with ‘Maxim’ Riesling from the Ruwer. This is not a complex wine, but it is a wine that is simply made to drink. Green apple, pear and twist of lemony acidity is all you need for a perfect aperitif. There’s a touch of residual sugar, held in check by lively acidity. Drink it while it is young and fresh.
