This is a tight, lean Riesling that opens up to a dynamic and earthy nose of grapefruit, reductive minerals and a deep dive on salinity; like an ocean breeze, very complex. It has firm acidity, a tart range of citrus fruit, lanolin, fuzzy peach and subtle minerality.
Alsace meets Canada. The juice spent 24 hours in contact with its skins to give more flavour and aroma. Turkish delight is the driving force here with honey, peach, spice, mango and cream weaving in. Long finale and off-dry, so serve with Peking duck or chili chicken.
Up-front tropical aromas precede a well-structured palate with quince, lemon and grapefruit notes and generous mouthfeel, underpinned by a keen mineral streak with good length and acidity.
Mainly Pinot Blanc and Pinot Auxerrois “cocktail” blend, with a splash of Pinot Gris and Müller Thurgau, plus another splash of Siegerrebe, Gewürz and Sauv Blanc. Up-front floral notes plus a hint of smoke precede a well-balanced palate of stone fruit and melon plus a steely edge from mineral undertones.
Pretty pale salmon in the glass, showing up-front stone fruit, peach and orchard notes before a clean and lively palate. Fleshed out with a little neutral oak, with hints of pear and quince underpinned by juicy acidity through a balanced, fresh finish.
Lifted orchard fruits of apple, peach and pear precede a fresh palate of crisp apple, melon and some tropical hints supported by moderate acidity.
Initial hints of orchard and stone fruit followed by apple and pear notes building on the mid-palate to a pleasantly fleshy mouthfeel, wrapped in firm but elegant acidity with mineral hints and leesy textures through a lengthy close. Wild ferment with 17 months in new and used French oak.
