Wine: 2020 Main Divide Riesling, North Canterbury $21.99 

Why I chose it: 

- Riesling is the best value NZ wine 

- It is an exceptionally good wine 

- Main Divide (Pegasus Bay) is a top Riesling producer 

What does it taste like? 

- Medium-dry riesling with the delicate aroma of white wildflowers and flavours that suggest lime and apricot. Delicately luscious wine with appealing purity and a lingering finish. Great value at this price. 

Why it’s a bargain: 

- Great wine at a competitive price 

Where can you buy it? 

- Whisky and More, Waikato $16.99, The Good Wine Co, Auckland $17.99, Fine Wine Delivery Company, Auckland $17.99, First Glass Wines and Spirits $17.99 

Food match? 

- Great on its own without the complication of food. Onion tart is my favourite. Hawaian Pizza is also a good match. 

Will it keep? 

- I prefer fresh, youthful Riesling but they can become quite interesting with age – mellow and toasty.
