Mayhem Riesling 2021

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe 2021 Riesling comes off 21B clones at Garagan Vineyard. It was handpicked on September 30 at full ripeness. It is all whole bunch pressed and fermented in stainless steel before being halted with a bump of residual sugar. Post ferment, it was aged on its lees for six months in a combination of neutral French puncheons (36%) and stainless steel tanks (64%). The style is open, floral, juicy, and fun. The residual sugar lets it pop in your mouth and makes me think of spicy bites to allow it to shine. Fun, fun, fun, and nothing more. Stock up all summer.Tasted: 04 May 2022Tasted by: Prices:
