Dry Riesling (2007) -
HJW Vineyard
The HJW Vineyard site was planted in 1976. This vineyard is defined by its thin, gravelly topsoil, yielding low-vigor vines and expressive vibrant wines, capturing minerality from the soil. Due to the mesoclimate, the wines portray an unprecedented minerality and acid structure allowing for excellent aging potential. The HJW vineyard is farmed under strict sustainable viticultural practices and is consistently some of the highest quality fruit we harvest.
