Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaMaria is the sweeter, friendlier of the Kitsch's rieslings boasting a healthy 16.5 g/L of residual sugar. Like Esther, the clone 239 fruit is from the estate, grown on clay/limestone soils. There is an immediate attraction here to a richer underbelly. You can sip this wine on the patio without food, but why would you? Look for mandarins, peaches, lemon and that open fruitiness that finishes super fresh. Balanced and a delight to sip. Think shellfish, Thai or a favourite curry.Tasted: 17 July 2019Tasted by: Prices: BC 25.00 winery direct, private wine shops

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaMaria is the sweeter of Kitsch's riesling sisters, with a noticeable but not uncomely 16.5 g/L RS in 2018. Both are sourced from the winery's home estate, and from clone 239, planted in 2013. This sister has a plump nectarine, mandarin, and mirabelle plum palate, girdled with a lime pith brace and finishing with a medicinal cherry rinse. After whole cluster pressing, this was fermented in stainless, after which it rested there for two months on lees. If you like your rieslings with a bump of sugar and a pop of acid to match, meet Maria.Tasted: 27 June 2019Tasted by: Prices: BC 25.00 winery direct, private wine shops
