2000 Riesling, Reserve VQA - Henry of Pelham
4 grapes
Winemakers'
Notes:
Traditionally, this wine has been at least 80% from our own estate at
Henry of Pelham, the 2000 vintage fitting that tradition at 87% estate.
Our approach has always been to show the quality of this wine by allowing
the grape's distinctive and vineyard specific characteristics to present
themselves, without a lot of winemaking technique or manipulation. This
wine is vinted with the intention of allowing the more intense acidity
and slightly fuller body to harmonize and improve with cellaring over
three to eight years.
