Brown Brothers Crouchen Riesling

The white grape variety, Crouchen originated in the western Pyrenees of France but, due to growing difficulties in the region, is no longer planted in any quantity. However, it can now be found in parts of South Africa and Australia where it is a vigorous variety, producing a wine of flavour and body with enticing hints of ripe melon and a delicate finish. Riesling, on the other hand, is one of the classic grape varieties of the Mosel Valley in Germany, the home of the fruity style of white wine, which has given rise to the Moselle style in Australia. It produces stylish flavoursome wines and brings length of flavour and a distinctive stamp of elegance to this blend.
