Badger Mountain Riesling

Organic and No Sulfites Added.

Delicate floral notes are woven through a framework of intense aromas of ripe Golden Delicious and Granny Smith apples, ripe kiwi and a touch of mineral to make an enticing package. The flavors of freshly picked apples are combined with a hint of honeyed sweetness. The delicate balance is impressive, with the fruit flavors lingering through the crisp, clean finish.

Winemaker's Notes:
"Estate fruit is always given high priority during harvest, and that is especially true of Riesling, as all of the production goes into the NSA Riesling. The 2006 vintage was a nice one for Riesling, and we kept a close eye on harvest times to insure fruit with nice natural balance. Picking the grapes at night allowed the fruit to be delivered in optimum condition, and destemming, crushing, and pressing were accomplished quickly. Fermentation using Epernay II yeast took approximately 17 days, and was stopped by chilling to leave a residual sugar just over 2%. This year we have blended 6% organic Muscat Canelli from our Estate, and the floral effect on the aromas is great."
