About This Wine
The ‘Magnum Opus’ of their range according to winemaker Rachael Carter, the Maren is an off-dry Riesling styled on the wines of Mosel .
The key characteristics of this wine; zesty citrus, white flowers and minerality, all wrapped in a perfect balance of acid and sugars. Super concentrated and focused on the palate with depth, backed by subtle sweetness and bright acidity.
The wine finishes with incredible length and despite the sweetness, a really refreshing character.
About Soho
Rachael Carter founded Soho Wines in 2008, using grapes from her father's vineyards in Marlborough and Waiheke Island. The intention from the beginning was to create premium wines that could be enjoyed by anyone. They now also source grapes from vineyards in the Gibbston, Bendigo and Bannockburn areas of Central Otago region on the South Island. Wines are made by Dave Clouston in Marlborough, James Rowan on Waiheke Island, and Grant Taylor in Central Otago.
Soho Wines currently makes a broad selection of wines across three labels (Black, Pink Sheep, and White), from Riesling, Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Syrah. Proceeds from sales of their Pink Sheep collection go to charities focusing on mental health, children, animals, and the environment.

Critic Reviews
"Ripe and luscious bouquet with aromas of tangerine and fresh green apple, white blossoms and cold apricot stone. There’s a fine mineral quality and youthful power. Off-dry on the palate with flavours of fresh lemon curd and apple, some white fleshed fruits and tangerine lime flower. Fresh acid line with a salty and salivating effect. Balanced and well made, youthful with plenty of longevity ahead." - Cam Douglas (Cam Douglas MS)

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!

We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
