Country: US / Medici Vineyard
Variety: Riesling Oregon
Winery: Timothy Malone / Chehalem Mountains
In 2016, Tim Malone has cut back on the residual sugar, dropping it down to 12 g/L, meaning the wine is just slightly off dry. The old-vine flavors rock on through, delivering big bursts of honeydew, grapefruit and lime, underscored by minerals. The depth, length and succulent drinkability are sublime.
