Palate
This Dry Riesling is an outstanding food wine, fresh and full-bodied with ripe bright stonefruit and citrus characteristics, prominent acidity, and a smooth, beautifully balanced finish.
Growing Conditions
The 2023 vintage hit a sizable speed bump on the night of May 18, when a combination of freezing temperatures and lack of wind engulfed much of the region in frost. With the vines already awake and starting to push growth, this led to substantial damage – with yields ultimately coming in around 40% less than average across the farm. The fruit that did reach maturity benefitted from a sunny and dry harvest to produce wines of ripe flavors and balanced acidity. Subsequent wines showcase the warrior spirit of grapes that endured a challenging growing process.
