Synchromesh Wines Bob Hancock Riesling 2016

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaOne of the last vineyards at the northern edge of the Naramata Bench the site tilts south and sits over gravelly clay above the cooling effects of Okanagan Lake. The vineyard is run by 3rd generation Naramata farmer Bob Hancock, and the clone is 21B grown on own roots. Plenty of calcium carbonate add to the chalky textures in the win, mixing effortlessly with enticing orange, apricot, apple blossom notes. The flavours are off-dry, pushing the limits of Kabinett in a good way. Look for juicy, delicious notes of tangerine, peach, lime and honeysuckle. Super value and ready to drink.Tasted: 07 September 2017Tasted by: Prices:
