Cave Spring Estate Riesling 2022

This wine originates from their Cave Spring Vineyard, nestled on a hillside of the Niagara Escarpment overlooking Lake Ontario, known as the Beamsville Bench. Along these gentle slopes, the combination of limestone-clay soil, elevation and moderating on-shore breezes produces a dry Riesling with a distinctive mineral quality that is the signature of this noble variety in their terroir.

Medium straw in colour. Subtle yet complex, with scents of white pepper, yellow grapefruit and white flowers over top hints of liquorice and chalk. Dry and medium-bodied, with bright yellow plum fruit and crisp acidity up front, a rich yet stony middle and a long, intense finish of grapefruit essence and spice. Tightly structured throughout, the wine shows tremendous tension and vibrancy.
