SpearHead Winery 2017 Riesling (East Kelowna) Okanagan Valley - BC
Availability: Direct from winery here and select VQA stores
Cost: $20 + taxes
Alcohol: 12%
Production: 500 cases
Date Tasted: May 7th, 2018
Tasting Notes: A crisp and raw Riesling with a youthful and masculine bouquet of citrus fruit rinds, peach stones, stainless steel and light, unpasteurized honey aromas. The tart palate offers similar notes showing great consistency from the nose with plenty of tense, lemon/lime and green apple acidity and finishing dry despite the 8g/l of residual sugar. Lingering, lemon thyme and lime zest flavours last through to the next sip.
Could use another 6-12 months in bottle to settle down and integrate further. Drink late-2018-2025+.
