2023 Destin Estate Riesling

Destin Vineyard, Oak Knoll District, Napa Valley

The 2023 Destin Estate Riesling presents as a vibrant exemplar of this aromatic varietal, marked by an invigorating, fresh, and dry profile. On the nose, an inviting bouquet of lemon zest and delicate unripe peach is entwined with the subtle fragrance of jasmine and assorted white flowers, setting the stage for a multifaceted sensory experience. Taking a sip, the palate comes alive with the luscious flavors of stone fruit, further enhanced by a pronounced minerality that adds depth and character. A surge of bright acidity propels the wine forward, giving it a crisp edge that is beautifully counterbalanced by a dash of saline, evoking the essence of a gentle sea breeze. This Riesling culminates in a long, lingering finish that persists with grace, inviting contemplation and savoring. Each glass is a journey through the exuberant terroir, making the 2023 Destin Estate Riesling a remarkable and memorable addition to any wine collection.
