Slightly sweet but slightly dry... ...the paradox. 
2006 Riesling, Seventh Hill Farm $17412 cases bottled. Release Date: June 1, 2007 SORRY SOLD OUT. As with all our rieslings I love to stop the fermentation and leave some residual grape sugar to balance. The 20 grams of sugar in the wine is from the grape and largely fructose - the sweeter, fruitier sugar. But don't expect a cloying sugar bomb. We made sure the wine had enough natural acidity at harvest to balance the sweetness. The sugar wraps around the acidity in the first part of the flavor. It gradually melts away leaving a crispy acid finish. I want Indian food! Techno Geek Wine Speak: 2% Residual Sugar (20 g/l) pH 2.95 TA: 8.5 g/l No Chaptalisation or dosage 9% Alcohol |
