Product Details
This wild fermented Riesling from the oldest vines planted in 1980 at the Butlers' Grant Vineyard is aged on its lees for six months and undergoes 100% malolactic fermentation. It's finished at 7 g/L of RS and 9.5% abv. This is a personable and minerally laced Riesling that shows a nose of lemon-lime, white peach, apricot, floral notes, saline and trademark ginger notes. There's subtle flintiness on the palate with lovely texture, ripe orchard fruits, zingy citrus, that trademark ginger note, a touch of honey and mouth-watering acidity through a lifted, fresh finish. Can cellar through 2035.
