2017 Waugh Santa Barbara Riesling

Harvest Date:  September 7, 2017
Brix: 22.9
Ph: 3.02
Alcohol: 12.8%
Production:  100 Cases

As always, we fermented the beautiful Waugh Riesling at a chilly 40 degrees, allowing the Riesling aromas to become extremely intense and the mouth feel crisp and structured. Once the sugar content went below 2 brix we tasted every hour until acid, alcohol and sugar have achieved balance and fermentation was stopped.

Another incredible mouth-watering Waugh Riesling for you to enjoy all summer long. You will not find as much residual sugar in our 2017 Riesling, as the balance between, acid, sugar and alcohol was achieved at a lower sugar level than past vintages. ThisRiesling displays an elegant floral nose, while the dry, crisp palate offers white peach and citrus fruit, backed by strong mineral notes.

Enjoy! Cheers!
