| HUGHES VINEYARD RIESLING 2022 VQA Twenty Mile Bench, Niagara Escarpment |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
FOGOLAR |
| Bright pale straw colour, this Mosel-inspired off-dry Riesling delivers great ripe apple-melon fruit flavours along with a friendly touch of residual sugar and great minerality at an excellent price. There is a surprising level of complexity on the palate and the fruit has evolved perfectly since being bottled with a screwcap closure a couple of years ago! This crowd-pleaser is pure perfection for holiday sipping - any time with almost anything. It has a well-balanced 9.1% alcohol along with 29 g/L residual sugar plus hefty total acidity which keeps everything in balance. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: This wine is made with fruit from the relatively warm Hughes Vineyard in Lincoln Lakeshore. Fashioned in a classic off-dry style, it delivers ripe peach, apple, citrus and ginger, with a lovely sweet-and-tangy interplay. Perfect for spiced pork, turkey dinner or honey-glazed ham. |
