The 2021 Dry Riesling is restrained and complex on the nose. Matured fully in old oak barrels, the wine shows very little evidence of this aromatically. Instead of appearing overtly spicy and “of oak,” the fruit leads with preserved citrus, yuzu, brine, white flowers and wet limestone. In the mouth, the wine is softly framed and chalky, with a gentle cloth-y texture and white tea phenolics through the finish. Taut, a little febrile, and totally layered, this is exciting drinking now and a magnificent cellaring proposition for the next couple of decades. It's worth mentioning that I believe this wine to be insanely underpriced for the quality and site-specific eloquence that it offers. Call it a gem from the New World. 12.5% alcohol, sealed under Diam.
