Black Swift Vineyards Riesling Kirkjian Farm 2016

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe deep clay soils of Kurkjian Farm make what winemaker Jason Parkes would term a more muscular, intense riesling with a pronounced firm, dry acid bent. The four-acre vineyard located in East Kelowna, just below Summerhill Winery, is certified organic. As noted previously its bone-dry styling reminds us of the Clare and Eden Valleys. Again, the electric East Kelowna, salty, mineral style carries the day, suggesting this wine will keep for years in the bottle. Love the style and so will food lovers.Tasted: 05 January 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
