Mission Hill Terroir Collection Simes Vineyard Riesling 2018
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaOne of MHFE's select Terroir Series, this comes from East Kelowna's Simes Vineyard, and its cool, north-facing silty clay soils. Clone 48, planted in 2008, this was entirely fermented and aged in stainless to preserve the steely, slick palate and focused and intense limey fruit, melon, and perfumed orange blossom. Green apple acids are raging here, buffered by a bed of lees, and the weightier soils, thankfully. The acidity may be jarring to some, but will be mitigated by lightly spiced and fragrant Thai or similarly sauced Chinese dishes.Tasted: 04 June 2019Tasted by: Treve Ring & Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $35.00 | 750ml | wine online exclusive |
