2016 Ice Princess
Regular price $32.00
The 2016 Riesling Ice Princess is made from 44-year-old vines at the Tualatin Estates Vineyard, a site with Lauralwood soils near Forest Grove in the Willamette Valley. These older vines are the source of the minearlity, concentration of complex fruit and richness in this ice wine style Riesling. The fruit as whole clusters is taken straight from the vineyard to cold storage where it is frozen for four to five weeks, after which it is immediately pressed very slowly over the course of several days, producing an intensely flavorful, aromatic and lengthy dessert wine. Bright acidity balances the sweetness making this both a wine that is very friendly for food pairing in the near-term, as well as a wine that is worthy of aging.
