2023 Hyland Riesling

"White flowers, orange blossoms, kumquat, lime skin, and lemon thyme pop out of the glass aromatically with flavors of baked tree fruits of apple, pear quince. A long lingering finish with gentle touch of sugar balancing each other elegantly with the acids giving this wine a finish that won't quit.

"Talk about a showstopper of a wine. The historic Hyland vineyard is known to produce some of the finest Riesling in the country and this wine does not disappoint. Medium sweet with acidity that washes over the palate. Great crunchy fruit. Mango, green currant, lemon skin, bit of petrol, and sugar-coated pineapple. Lingering finish that keeps the mouth salivating."

"This wine is striking and complex, opening with vinyl and honeysuckle layered over lemon zest, orange peel, yellow apple, and pear, with tropical hints of mango and melon alongside savory notes of bell pepper, asparagus, flint, and wet wool. The palate mirrors the aromatics with vibrant mix of citrus, orchard fruit, and subtle green and mineral tones. High acidity and a medium-plus body drive the wine through a textured, medium-plus finish."
