GROWER'S BLEND RIESLING 2023 VQA West Niagara, Niagara Peninsula
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer TAWSE
This tasty, crowd-pleaser has a pale straw colour with an attractive, fairly intense, gently spicy, slightly floral, fresh, ripe wintermelon-apple-lemon nose with some bright mineral notes. Off-dry and medium bodied, the bright, ripe, melon-apple-lemon flavours are followed up with a crisp, mineral-tinged finish. Versatile, well balanced and ready-to-drink, it has a 10.5% alcohol, 21 g/L residual sugar and a refreshing 9 g/L total acidity with a screwcap closure. A great well-priced refresher, especially chilled with flavourful, spicy Chinese and Indian dishes. CSPC 89029

TASTING NOTE: The newly named \"Growers Blend' riesling has a classic flavour profile ... ripe green and yellow apples and pears, lemons, and limes. The palate is medium bodied, with some flesh and weight to it, as also some sweetness, balanced and lifted by firming acidity. Flavourful and balanced, this riesling should pair well with spicy, chilliinfused, even slightly sweet sauces like khao soi or paneer makhani. Tasted February 2026.
