Here's a Bargain!
The Waipara Valley has been wowing Riesling lovers for 40 years, but in many ways still remains a Cantab secret as the variety is snubbed in favour of more 'fashionable' varieties. We say ignore the fashionistas and grab some of this delicious bargain. Chill well and enjoy!

The fruit for this wine was sourced from a number of small vineyards throughout the Waipara Valley. The vines were low cropped and sustainably managed on alluvial soils to create a wine that is completely expressive of its origin and vintage.

5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit (2019 Vintage)
"This is pristine and delightfully lifted on the nose showing mandarin, apricot, lemon zest and Gala apple characters, leading to a juicy palate that’s fabulously flavoursome and lingering. The wine offers terrific fruit power together with subtle sweetness and crisp acidity, making it highly enjoyable."

The Crater Rim takes its name from the twin craters of the ancient Akaroa and Lyttelton volcanos. Eruptions from these majestic landforms in ages past gifted the surrounding land with an enduring fertility.

The Crater Rim's first yineyard was planted above Akaroa township and the significance of this location in terms of its climatic effect on the whole region of Canterbury meant this brand would extend to include plantings in additional sub-regionsof Waipara, Omihi and Banks Peninsula and Central Otago.

Waipara, in North Canterbury's hills, is now the home base for The Crater Rim where specific sub-regional terriors contribute to the wines produced on their vineyards. Exceptional Pinot Noir is produced at The Crater Rim's winery site, Omihi Rise, also in North Canterbury. The Frahar Vineyard in Waipara also supplies Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc grapes.

The Crater Rim is a frequent recipient of awards, including multiple medals in the New World Wine Awards and regular reviews by Sam Kim of Wine Orbit.
