Barrel Fermented Riesling, 2022
There is a richness and texture from the oak that appears on the nose and palate, with just a hint of nutmeg. Reminiscent of a fumé blanc, but with the strong acid backbone of a Riesling. Hints of pencil eraser with notes of manadarin, lemon flesh, wet stone, and lemongrass. Very dry but well balanced with rich mouthfeel. Lingering finish of lemon curd making the wine tart but unctuous. Serve slightly warmer than your typical white wine for the best aromatics.
