SMITH MADRONE RIESLING 2014

“100% Riesling from 42 year old vines, estate grown and dry-farmed. No malolactic fermentation and no oak. 1551 cases made, 12.8% Alcohol. 7.6gr RS. A nose of honeysuckle, orange blossom, crisp citrus fruits and minerality is followed by touches of white peach and pear. The wine is very dry, smooth, discreetly elegant with a bright acidity and a silky mouthfeel. The aftertaste lingers on the palate with a refreshing zing of crisp citrus fruits. This wine is made from mountain grown grapes, honoring the international tradition of Riesling which thrives on steep hillsides.”
