Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaJust when you thought they were all out of Vs, vinegrower Rob Van Westen releases his first riesling = Viscous. The style is fresh and vibrant, combining both high acid and substantial residual sugar that mostly tend to cancel each other out. The palate is a mix of ripe sugared lemon drops with baked apples and poached pears before a mineral, zippy finish kicks in. You can cool this down and drink it solo for its fresh sugary fruit, or serve it with a favourite curry dish and let it work its magic. An excellent addition to the lineup, Robert.Tasted: 04 October 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
