Spearhead Riesling 2017

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaResinous, lime rind, stony, green apple aromas open this tight, severe styled riesling, sourced from The Rise Vineyard in Vernon, as well as Gentleman Farmer Vineyard in south east Kelowna. The attack is juicy but a touch rustic, with the crisp, dry palate of peachy orchard fruit and grassy, soapy notes in the finish. This still holds 8 g/l RS. Fun, and ready to drink but simple. A weeknight bottle for sushi, chicken salads and creamy pasta dishes.Tasted: 25 July 2018Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Treve RingPrices:
