2017 Barncat Vineyard Dry Riesling
This incredibly distinct dry Riesling was aged sur lie for ten months. During this time, the barrels were topped with a smaller batch of wine from the same vintage and year. That batch was intentionally oxidized in the spirit of a fino sherry giving it a slight hint of oxidative nuttiness.
With a nose of freshly peeled apple and pear juice, this classic dry Riesling is lush and full bodied with raging acidity. Finishes with a hint of hazelnut and caramel.
Like all our other wines, it was wild yeast fermented in neutral oak. Other than a very small amount of sulfite, absolutely nothing was added to this wine. Unfiltered and unfined.
