CUVÉE ALANNA 2021 (RIESLING)

A single vineyard Riesling which was inspired by a visit in March 2021 to Yann Durrmann in Alsace, specifically his Grand Cru Kastelberg vineyard. Alanna was really inspired by Rieslings from really sour soils, and wanted to both express and experience this with this one vineyard they have (which had previously been harvested and blended into the Weiss).
This was the last vineyard Marto & Alanna harvested, and they were blessed with a perfect fruit, with both high sugar and high acidity.
The result is the expression of a sour soil Riesling with insanely high acidity. Alanna recommends keeping it in the cellar for a few years for optimal drinking enjoyment. Topped up barrels, and ripe fruit, the wine is insanely stable.
