CedarCreek Platinum Riesling 2012

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaOnly available at the winery this is long since sold out. In 2012 winemaker Darryl Brooker chose to harvest the 21-year-old vines much earlier than in previous years. The flavour is almost pure lemon with a touch of lime rind all set in a low alcohol, unirrigated riesling. A tribute to the Mosel Okanagan style. Fresh bright and full of tension. An electric wine that is part of the New Okanagan. The winery suggest sweet and sour pork and we couldn't agree more.Tasted: 24 August 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
