2022 Silver Lake Roza Riesling
Tasting notes
Creamy scents of clover and honey give our Riesling a subtle richness that helps to balance the sweetness of this wine. On the palate sweet honey and candied pineapple flavors are forward and lush, while accents of pear and a touch of spice give some complexity to the sweet and almost sugary core. This an exemplary after-dinner sipper.
Ripe Riesling grapes were harvested, crushed, and pressed to stainless steel tank where the juice was inoculated with a selected yeast strain. The wine was fermented cool (~56oF) for 30 days to help preserve fresh fruit flavors. Primary fermentation was stopped using cold temperatures and Sulfur Dioxide, in order to leave ~4% Residual Sugar in the wine. Once the fermentation was stopped, the wine was stabilized for acid and protein. The wine was then prepped for bottling through filtration and bottled.
