"Aromas of lemon drop hard candies, honeycomb and red apples fill the air, followed by a wee bit of talc. The palate vibrates with acidity, lighting up Meyer lemon, tonic water with a lemon slice and Bosc pear flavors. Serve with fried goat cheese balls and rule the world."

The 2022 Riesling Old Vine Single Vineyard wafts up with a spicy blend of crushed peaches, chamomile and hints of petrol. Cooling, toned and saline upon entry, this builds in sweetness as juicy acidity enlivens ripe orchard fruits and a bit of mint forms toward the close. The 2022 finishes squeaky clean and fresh with a citrusy concentration adding pleasant tension. This is nicely balanced at 8.4 grams per liter of residual sugar.

The pale silver-straw 2022 Riesling Old Vine McMinnville is lifted with ripe aromas of candied lime, preserved peaches, a hint of petrol lift, and wet stone. Focused and medium-bodied, with just a kiss of sweet fruit, its fresh acidity feels harmonious and mostly dry, with attractive pithy citrus on the finish. It's a well-balanced, very pretty white to drink over the next few years.

The 2022 Old Vine Riesling features fresh pineapple, lime zest, elderflower and candle smoke aromas. The light-bodied palate is dry and citrusy with pleasing floral character, very tangy acidity and a puckering, lime sherbet-like finish.
