Tightrope Winery Riesling 2018
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaTightrope uses two separate picks about a week apart to search for maximum ripeness. After a cold ferment, the wine is left with a small amount of residual sugar that has a subtle balancing effect with a wine that presents as otherwise dry. The fruit is all Naramata Bench. The nose is clean with white and green fruit aromas and a touch of orange. The palate is crisp with citrus, mineral, nectarine, pink grapefruit and a tart finish. Match with fish tacos, halibut with fruit salsa, or lightly spiced sushi rolls.Tasted: 03 February 2020Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $22.00 | 750ml | winery online, select private retailers |
