Description

Tawse Sketches of Niagara Riesling 2016

Tawse Sketches of Niagara Riesling is deliciously off-dry with a creamy mouthfeel. Bright red apples, white flowers and a hint of lime opens the nose. Crisp and fresh on the palate thanks to its light body and vivid acidity that balances beautifully with a creamy mouthfeel. Clean apple, white peach and dried apricot flavours with a clean note of zesty lime and stoniness. Closes in a long and intense finish.

100% Riesling. The fruit comes from select sustainably-farmed Niagara Peninsula vineyards. Viticultural practices include vertical shoot positioning, shoot thinning, cluster thinning, hand leaf removal and hand-harvesting. Fermentation in stainless steel.
