| This tasty continuously available Vintages Essential has a bright very pale straw colour with an intense, gently spicy, faintly honeyed, fresh, ripe apple-melon-lemon nose with some mineral notes and a faint hint of petrol. Fairly dry, medium-light bodied, tangy, spicy, faintly honeyed, intense, fresh, ripe apple-melon-lemon flavours with a lingering, crisp, unoaked, mineral-tinged finish. Quite ready-to-drink, it has 10% alcohol, 24 g/L residual sugar and a hefty 8 g/L total acidity with lot number 09/02/23 on the lower part of the glass bottle Screwcap closure. |

| TASTING NOTE: The 2021 vintage was a challenging one in Niagara, with humidity and rain playing a significant role in the timing and quality of harvests across the region. However, early-ripening varieties such as Riesling fared very well. This one has the characteristic vibrancy, balance and concentrated apple, lime, peach, apricot and classic minerality that has made it such a popular wine here at Vintages. |
