Ghost Rock Riesling 2023

Tasting Notes

Vibrancy and fragrance are the hallmarks of our Riesling. Perfumed citrus and floral on the nose, this wine is full of citrus and stone fruit notes on the palate. It's natural acidity affords a structure that will see it age well moving forward. Hallmark acidity provides dramatic length and liveliness, balanced by residual sugar and creamy lees texture.

Fruit was harvested gently while cold and put direct into press. Following mild clarification, juice fermented at the coolest possible temperate to elongate and moderate fermentation, and protect delicate flavour compounds. At the desired residual sugar level, fermentation was ceased and a 3 month lees stirring program implemented. In addition, for a period of 5 weeks, 2 neutral oak barrels were filled (<5% of volume) to up lees integration & promote textural diversity. - Winery Note
