Phantom Creek Estates Riesling Evernden Spring Vineyard 2022

Cawston, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe first Evernden Vineyard Riesling is out, and it tells a story of the Similkameen. The steep, stony vineyard, buffeted by strong daily winds, has a wildness that weaves through the lean, lemony textures of this small-lot offering. The nose has a distinct white-flower, jasmine aroma that sets the scene for lemon, honeysuckle, and a faint mineral petrol finish. It is remarkably complex and ticks all the gastronomic boxes for serving at the dinner table. A great wine that will only improve in the bottle over the next decade or two. This is a vineyard you are going to hear a lot about in the future. It was aged for 9 months in 87% Austrian oak, 13% French oak.Tasted: 06 November 2025Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
