Ex Nihilo Riesling 2017
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaEx Nihilo sits near 50 degrees north in cool-climate Lake Country, British Columbia, and in 2017 the late hanging fruit was picked after a winter snowstorm and freezing temperatures. The normally lean style is much richer with yellow fruits and spätlese style residual sugar giving it an off-dry demeanour, but with enough acidity in the finish. Soft and round, this would be best served with spicy dishes to tame a bit of the sugar. Think barbecue pork or a Thai curry.Tasted: 08 October 2018Tasted by: Prices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops |
