Riesling 2022

Peter's wines are stunning and some of the most sought after in Italy. They are bone dry, but loaded with pure, rich fruit, plenty of extract and alcohol.  They cut across the palate like a sword, but the complexity and structure is compelling. In many ways the wines' reflect Peter's admiration for Rieslings of the Mosel and Veltliners of the Wachau but they are distinctively Italian, displaying a stony minerality that differs from those grown just north or south of his property and are expressive of a unique terroir. The winemaking is the same for all varieties. They are aged in a combination of stainless steel and acacia botti with no malolactic and they age superbly.

Gold with greenish highlights and faint floral and herbal scents on the nose. On the palate one finds intense flavours of white peach, orange peel and apricot, sharply focussed and delineated, showing noteworthy verve. A strong sense of minerality underlies the honeyed finish, which also conveys nuances of candied ginger and quince.
