| TASTING NOTE: Sourced from four separate blocks within Fielding's Beamsville Bench Vineyard, this wonderfully elegant, flavourful Riesling delivers crunchy apple, pear and citrus. It's got a delicate frame, but don't be fooled: it packs a laser-light-show of flavour and the brilliant, lip-smacking finish goes on and on. Impressive, and a versatile food wine. Drink now through 2025 with sausages and sauerkraut, fish and chips, sesame chicken - or nothing but a crisp autumn evening. (Vintages panel, Aug. 2017) |
