| TASTING NOTE: Sourced from Locust Lane, Felseck and Rosomel estate vineyards, this classic Beamsville Bench Riesling hits all the marks. It effortlessly expresses the lively character of the vintage, which saw warm days and cool nights work in concert to create expressive, characterful wines that show great depth of flavour while retaining crisp, zesty freshness. Look for green apple, orange, pineapple, and a gorgeous mineral note. |
