Aromas of meyer lemon, mandarin, linden flower, orange blossom. Flavor of stone fruit, crisp apples, Asian pear, cardamom. The finish has dry, long, minerality.
Our Estate Riesling from vineyards directly in front of our winery includes the original 1979 planting. High sun exposure and unique soils yield an intensely perfumed and expressive wine exhibiting pure varietal character. Aromas of jasmine flower and marmalade lead to flavors of stone fruits and a pleasing minerality. The fresh acidity and long finish mean you can enjoy watching this wine develop for years.
