TASTING NOTE: A tried-and-true Vintages staple, this Riesling always over-delivers on quality with its pure expression of the Niagara terroir. Able to ripen early thanks to the Niagara Escarpment's warming breezes and dense limestone soil, this wine sings on the palate with notes of lime, apricot, green apple, and flinty minerality. [The National Wine Awards of Canada did not include a tasting note.] Score - 92 (National Wine Awards of Canada, 2023) |
