Orofino Home Vineyard Old Vines Riesling 2022
Cawston, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Home Vineyard 21B riesling clone is the engine of the Home Vineyard Old Vines Wild Ferment Riesling, now 33 years old. The vines are well rooted in the sandy, loamy gravels of the Similkameen Valley. At harvest the berries are destemmed and cool fermented on native yeast in concrete and old French barrels before spending another 12 months in bottle before release. The ‘22 is a firm edition throwing pear, mineral, green apple, and nectarine skin with plenty of mineral, wet stone notes, dusted in Similkameen sagebrush. A serious wine worthy of contemplation and discussion if you are up to it. Otherwise drink it and be glad you had the chance to experience it.Tasted: 07 November 2024Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $29.95 | 750ml | winery online, select private retailers |
