Fort Berens Grüner Veltliner Extended Lees Contact Red Rock Vineyard 2022

Lillooet, British Columbia, CanadaFrom their estate Red Rock Vineyard, in Lillooet, this GV was destemmed and crushed, with 4 hours skin contact prior to heading to a split of 70% stainless, 30% neutral oak for fermentation. Crisp and bright, with gooseberry, melon, pink grapefruit along a sleek (near clinical) palate, with a slightly slick of lees, and dusting of white peppery spice on the snappy finish. Correct, fresh, and bright, this would suit any summer salads / steamed shellfish dishes.Tasted: 26 June 2023Tasted by: Prices:
