2017 Riesling

Description

2017 Riesling:

Varietals: 100% Riesling

Vineyards:  Coquelicot Vineyard

Regions: Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Barbara

Bottle Size: 750ml

Some of the most notable Riesling in California is grown in Santa Barbara County. Our Riesling was picked ripe but with low sugar and very high acidity. Crushed and macerated for 24 hours before pressing resulted in extracting more flavor and phenolics from the skins. Fermented in stainless steel and terra cotta, some native and some inoculated. Fermented to dryness. A very racy Riesling but with prominent clean fruit. Super refreshing.
