St. Urban was the original riesling planting on the Niagara Bench. This is racy, off-dry, yet bracing young riesling...

Alsacian in every sense. Nose and taste both echo the big mineral backbone.

Mineral is balanced with juicy tropical fruit notes and sharp, clean and crisp acidity.

EXCELLENT STUFF!

Pours a mature golden yellow colour. Mature nose of medium-high intensity with aromas of wax, honey, citrus, and peach. It's medium+ bodied and off-dry with honeyed, citrusy, and peach flavours. Acids are a bit low, but still well-balanced. Pleasant, chalky-textured mouthfeel. Waxy, citrus, and mineral oil notes linger on the long, lip-smacking finish. Tasted Sept. 2022.
