Cave Spring Riesling Medium Dry 2021

Product description

Cave Spring Vineyard, established in 1978 in Ontario's Niagara Peninsula, is renowned for its dedication to crafting high-quality wines that reflect the unique terroir of the region. The winery specializes in cool-climate varietals, with a particular emphasis on Riesling, showcasing the distinct characteristics of their vineyards.

The 2021 Cave Spring Riesling Medium Dry is a testament to the winery's expertise in this varietal. This wine presents a pale straw color and offers an expressive bouquet featuring notes of lemon drop, cut grass, and ruby grapefruit, with undertones of tangerine, anise, and fresh pastry. On the palate, it is dry and medium-bodied, with well-extracted flavors of Key lime and a tense seam of saline acidity. The mid-palate reveals chalky, lemon pith grip beneath and a hint of wet stone, leading to a delicate yet persistent finish of white peach, dried apricot, and lemon grass.

Optimal Drinking Window: The 2021 Cave Spring Riesling Medium Dry is best consumed between 2023 and 2026, with the potential to develop and hold through at least 2028.

Food Pairing Suggestions: This Riesling pairs beautifully with goat's cheese appetizers, sushi, raw oysters, marinated grilled vegetables, pan-seared trout, charcuterie, and lemon-braised chicken, enhancing the wine's depth and complexity.
