Charles Baker Riesling Picone Vineyard 2013

Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaFrom Vineymount Ridge, the highest point of the Niagara Peninsula, the Picone Vineyard is a densely planted, dolomitic limestone-laden site with 30+ year old riesling vines. Vine age shows in the subtle concentration of this wine, with petrol, potent pear, and a slick of key lime on the lees-slicked palate. There's a fine grip of pear skin that frames the edges of this slim wine. 10.1 alc, 15.7 g/l, TA 8.23, pH 3.Tasted: 13 October 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
