The 2022 Riesling hails from the heart of Virginia, embracing the 'Trocken,' or dry, style that expertly balances the varietal's innate zest with a poised elegance. In the glass, it conjures a serene orchard with its bright aromas of ripe pear, luscious apricot, and juicy pineapple that entice the senses with the promise of a crisp and invigorating sip.
This wine's palate is a celebration of purity and precision, where stone fruit flavors play the lead role. The quintessential minerality of a classic Riesling is pronounced, providing a textural complexity that weaves seamlessly with the fruit notes. The acidity is as refreshing as a cool breeze on a hot summer day, ushering in a vibrant finish that leaves the mouth clean and wanting another taste.
It's a wine that speaks of the meticulous care in vineyard and winery alike, resulting in a Riesling that is both cool and collected. A perfect accompaniment to a wide array of dishes or a delightful refreshment on its own, this Riesling is a testament to the sophistication that Virginia wines can achieve.
