Drinking Window: 2023 - 2029
An off-dry Riesling from old vines in the Bois Joli vineyard planted in 1983. It's aromatically light with notes of honeysuckle and jasmine floating alongside early-season apricot flesh. The palate is rich, yet mineral notes predominate. Wet stone, crushed chalk and petrichor lead into cut pear and green apple goodness.
