The Chase Block 11 Riesling 2017
Lake Country, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaI love the simplicity and balance of this wine, letting you appreciate it for what it is: a very drinkable riesling. The nose is fresh with classic young riesling fragrance, in this case, green peach and grapefruit. The attack is juicy and the red and green apple slides down seamlessly, constantly calling you back to the glass. The acidity is understated but real, allowing for 20 grams of natural residual sugar to be present but hardly noticeable. A giant food-friendly wine. The fruit comes off Block 11 of the Carrs Landing Vineyard and even then, from selected rows. A terrific effort by winemaker Adrian Baker.Tasted: 08 October 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $21.00 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops |
