Description
100 % Coal River Riesling coming from the Winen Vineyard on White Kangaroo Rd (near the home vineyard for B+P) and from the limestone-based Mapleton Vineyard on Middle Tea Tree Rd and also Clemens closer to Richmond.
The season was characterised by the El Nino weather patters - a shift from the previous 3 years cooler seasons. Picked two weeks early. Whole bunch pressed. Inoculated with neutral yeast. Fermentation left to go through to approx 1.5g residual. Minimal time on lees. No time in concrete because it was already soft from the fruit weight and fruit sweetness. We see this as balanced. A riper year so softer on the palate. Unfined as we love the “rawness”. 13.2 % Alc/Vol; 1.5 g/L RS; 2.94 pH.
