Description
How can one winery make so many great Rieslings? While there are many different expressions of this most noble of white grapes from Framingham, the quantities are necessarily tiny, due in part to the cannibalising effect of the botrytis fungus. Ridiculously concentrated and unctuous, with excellent purity and focus, this 2019 vintage of Framingham Noble Riesling has wowed the critics - and whichever merchants have been fortunate enough to taste it (much less sell it).
Smells
Simply sensational nose of honey drizzled apricots, mandarin, coconut and dried pineapple.
Tastes
The concentration is almost unseemly in this wine, the combination of honeyed decadence and vibrant freshness taking this into the realm of the truly great dessert wines of the world. Drink now or cellar 20+ years - this wine is a stayer and will become something truly majestic if properly stored. Best enjoyed in its pure form as a hard match to follow or with creamy, oozing cheeses.
We taste, rate & guarantee every wine we sell.
