2005 Riesling Ice Wine
SOLD OUT
RIESLINGS
$70.00 / 375 ml. bottle
Ice Wine is a rare and extraordinary dessert-style wine abounding with luscious fruit flavors and sweet mouth-filling qualities. It is produced from ultra-ripe Riesling grapes purposefully left on the vine late into the season to naturally freeze. Once picked, the grapes are gently pressed under cold conditions to extract a miniscule amount of the unfrozen essence of the grape. After lengthy fermentation in small, stainless steel tanks, the resulting wine is an exquisite treat for the senses. Serve this wine slightly chilled and allow it to slowly warm in the glass to reveal its unique aromas and sweet nectar-like qualities.

2008 Riesling "Lot 49"
RIESLINGS
$21.99/750ml. bottle
This is a very limited production wine marking the first bottling from our “Lot 49” hillside vineyard. It is a medium sweet and well-balanced white wine with a complex nose of light clove, nutmeg, anise and peach. Its full-body style unveils subtle layers of ripe stone fruit and fresh acidity. This wine was hand-picked, whole-cluster pressed, cool fermented in stainless steel and then aged on the fine lees until bottling to preserve the pure expression of the fruit.

2007 Botrytis Riesling
RIESLINGS
$24.99 / 500 ml. bottle - $299.88
The cool wet October weather of the 2007 vintage was ideal for the Botrytis Cinerea fungus or “Noble Rot” to manifest on late-ripening Riesling clusters, causing the grapes to shrivel and concentrate in flavor. We laboriously hand sorted these raisined grapes, berry by berry, in order to make a sweet-style wine of uncommon intensity and richness. It shows beautiful honeyed flavors of ripe pineapple and apricot with a hint of vanilla and cedar in the finish from one month of aging in a traditional German oak oval.
