Moraine Cliffhanger White 2021

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe blend changed in 2021 adding 18 percent riesling to the mix of 37 percent gewürztraminer and 45 percent pinot gris. The style is aromatic and lively with a large bump of residual sugar. Expect a nose of rose petals and white flowers with a palate of ripe litchi fruit, pineapple, and peaches, with a twist of lemon meringue pie. It is fresh enough but the sugar dominates and suggests it could be served with very spicy dishes on the patio, well chilled.Tasted: 22 February 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
