2022 RIESLING
Lamb's Quarters Vineyard
Off-Dry White Table Wine

Alcohol: 11.3%
Total added sulfite: 70 ppm
Ingredients: Grapes, yeast, sulfite
Crushed and destemmed
Direct to press
Stainless steel for 24 months

Note: Peach, lime, ginger, middle-weight, lightly sweet with a creamy texture and lime zest
finish.
Elevage: Grapes were crushed, destemmed and pressed. Settled juice was moved to
stainless steel where fermentation, including full malolactic, continued until September of
2024. A long one! In November the wine was racked off its lees and bottled without fining
or filtration.
Miscellaneous: This riesling struggled for two years to finish fermentation. It gently bubbled
away for ever and ever, then stopped just shy of truly dry in September, 2024. In November
we gave up and bottled the wine. Godspeed little riesling. The extended lees contact is
evident in the nose and mouth and also the shelf life of an opened bottle--it will remain fresh
and ever changing for weeks on end.
