2008 Napa Valley Riesling Louise
The grapes for this Napa Valley Riesling were harvested from the Oak Knoll District, located in the cool, southern end of the Napa Valley. The whole clusters were delivered to the press by gravity and then gently pressed to tank. The must was slowly fermented in tank at 45°F retaining all of the delicate white peach and floral aromas from the fruit. Fermentation was naturally stopped at 0.88% residual sugar lending to the rich flavors and lush and silky finish with no noticeable sweetness.
