Dom Maxwell Nectar Riesling 2017
Market Price
To show you the value you're getting as an Angel...
We regularly benchmark a selection of our wines against up to three comparable wines on the market. The Market Price is based on the price of those wines.
What do we mean by benchmark? We taste them blind against our own wines, or we use our market knowledge (over 40 years between us) to set an industry standard Market Price.
If you buy one of our wines and disagree with the Market Price, or it's not your cup of tea, we'll add a credit to your account. For more info, see our FAQS.

About the wine
Dom's sweet Waipara Riesling from a stunning vintage is 37.5cl of pure liquid nectar
-
When two-time New Zealand Winemaker of the Year Dom told us he had a special sweet treat lined up for his Angels, we knew it had to be something seriously special to live up to his high standards. And boy did he prove us right…
-
This honey-sweet noble Riesling from Waipara’s incredible 2017 vintage has been ageing gracefully for 4 years and grows in complexity every day that drifts by. It’s unctuous and fresh, with beautiful flavours of mandarin orange, honey and spice. It’s simply a top-quality dessert wine.
-
It’s already a delicious pairing for a sticky toffee pud or mega cheese board, but sweet wines this concentrated and complex are a rare thing, and can age for donkey’s years. So if you can bear to wait, it’ll be the perfect topper to round off a special slap-up dinner down the road.

Serving advice
Serve lightly chilled at 10–13ºC
Food match
Really lovely match with a variety of cheeses, traditionally this will match up with sweet foods but the counter balance of a hard crumbly aged cheese is hard to beat.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Dom Maxwell
- Dom is one of the best winemakers in New Zealand. He was voted New Zealand Winemaker of the Year in 2018 and 2011, he also won the prestigious Decanter International Trophy for Pinot Noir in 2014.
- We had a nod from Rod Easthope that Dom wanted to break free, become an independent winemaker and create a brighter future for his family. Frankly it was a chance we couldn't pass up.
- Dom has made wine for some exceptional Kiwi wineries, including Muddy Water and Greystone. Now he's able to put his own name on the label to make wines for himself and for you.
