Big Head 2014 Riesling, Hunter Vineyard

A late-picked Riesling from 20 year old vines, whole cluster pressed, wild fermented and, as the Big Head himself stresses, all fresh fruit … the aromas of apples and peach are seductively Niagara … there is a hint of sweetness but with a balanced mineral / chalky finish – fruit comes across as pear and delicious apple on the palate. At only 11% alcohol this is one of those middling Rieslings that’ll make you ask, do I have another with lunch or not? I say, “what the heck”.  Price: $19.00 – Rating: ****+
