Kitsch Riesling 2020

88POINTS

16/20

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Kitsch Riesling is sustainably farmed, and it walks the fine line between being too fruity or too acidic. The colour is a pale yellow, the nose a citrus pith and green apple affair. The palate is nervous with guava and lime and a subtle bitter undercurrent mixed with a salty finish. Very food-friendly, this will age effortlessly through 2027. The winery suggests you serve it with chickpea burgers.Tasted: 06 December 2021Tasted by: Prices:

Kitsch Riesling 2020

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe estate riesling is all clone 239, planted 2013 on gravel, sands and silts. It was whole cluster pressed and fermented in stainless, with no bâtonnage. Thought just 3 g/L RS, it comes across as lightly off-dry, with ripe pear, honey, cool quince stretched long across the sleek palate. There's an easily drinkability to this young wine, primed for cracking now.Tasted: 18 February 2022Tasted by: Prices:

Kitsch Riesling 2020

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis riesling comes off Kitsch's estate in East Kelowna, where 2.5 acres are planted to clone 239. In 2020, these low-yielding, seven-year-old vines offer a zesty wine that combines punchy lime with crisp green apple. There's a real crystalline character to the fruit, with honey and delicate citrus blossoms adding complexity. It's linear and dry (3 g/L residual sugar), in a style that is racy but not austere. Line up the oysters.Tasted: 19 December 2021Tasted by: Prices:
