CedarCreek Dry Riesling 2012

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThey say they throw the rulebook out at CedarCreek when they make riesling. This bottle was fermented very cold (8-9 degrees Celsius) and very slow (77 days). It's the aromatics folks and in this case a whack of acidity. Firm taut and dry with stony minerality, it may be too tight for a lot of the population but it's a style and I applaud the winery for taking a chance. Fish tacos, or barbecue ribs would be a fine match.Tasted: 24 August 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
