The wine is 12.5% vol. and a description tells me that I am going to enjoy "Delicious full white wine with tropical fruit aromas and honeyed oaky flavours.", it is a clear white chardonnay ...

Riesling The Riesling grape is about 20th in the world in terms of volume, but is considered to be in the top three most important white grape varieties for quality.
