JoieFarm Riesling iv 2011
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaWhat a difference a vintage makes. The cooler 2011 has slimmed down JoieFarm's generous style and narrowed the focus of this expressive, limey and vibrant riesling. Tasted five years after harvest, the honeyed herbal wild flowers now dominate the off-dry palate, with pithy lime-laced acidity defining Anjou pear and fragrant mandarin. Spicy stoniness lingers on the finish. If you have in your cellar, crack this now and enjoy.Tasted: 21 April 2016Tasted by: Prices:BC | $23.00 | 750ml | restaurants, private wine shops |
