Grapes for 2021 F-Series Old Vine Riesling were selected from the old organically grown vines in front of the our cellar door. The soils here are of the old type; fist sized stones composed of greywacke (a hard, dark type of sandstone streaked with quartz and feldspar) mixed alluvial gravel and silt. Vineyard practice for this wine is geared to produce ripe grapes that have had maximum “hang time” on the vine. Fruit is all hand harvested.
