Martin's Lane Riesling 2012
East Kelowna Slopes, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaRecently re-tasted and there is little doubt this wine is finally settling into a groove as is the collaboration of winemakers John Simes and Fritz Hasselbach. The fruit is sourced from the steepest slopes of the estate vineyard facing southwesterly on Mission Hill Road. The nose is floral and fresh with juicy fruit reminiscent of fresh pear flecked with cherries and tangerines — intense refined and well worth contemplating. Try it with your favourite summer gazpacho or foie gras pate with a rocket salad.Tasted: 07 May 2014Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $26.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
