2KW Bar and Restaurant Celebrates the ‘Return’ of Riesling with Curated Wine Events
Adelaide’s popular rooftop destination, 2KW Bar and Restaurant, is gearing up to celebrate the resurgence of the Riesling grape variety with a series of exciting wine events. Taking place throughout January, February, and March, these events are set to elevate the wine experience for both enthusiasts and everyday consumers.
The Growing Popularity of Riesling
Riesling has been gaining favor among wine lovers and everyday drinkers alike. Its versatility and ability to be made into sparkling, dessert, and table wines have contributed to its rising popularity. Additionally, new world Rieslings are now drier, making them more versatile and savory.
Perfect for Warm Seasons and Diverse Cuisine
Riesling is an ideal wine for warmer seasons, known for its freshness, acidity, and adaptability. It pairs well with a wide range of dishes, including Asian, Mediterranean, and seafood cuisines.
Specialty Dishes and Pairings
Executive Chef Sam Christopher has crafted a menu of specialty dishes that perfectly complement Riesling. These offerings include Tuna Tartare Tart with Cured Tuna Heart, Peach Melba, and XO Pippies with Chinese donuts.
