Nik Weis St. Urbans-Hof Riesling QbA 2022

"A juicy crystalline riesling on both the nose and palate. The mouth feel is textural and juicy with a long finish of fruit and rounded acidity. The soft and delicate approach builds with a combination of lime and bath salts. Delicate crystalline flavours on the palate show a dry precise riesling with texture, spice and delicate acidity that give the wine focus and fantastic length. Consistent with the now well-established Rieslings from Frankland Estate this wine displays the balance of pristine fruit flavours and precise and delicate acidity, medalled with generosity of fruit, resulting in an exceptional wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared with the confidence it will continue to develop further complexity over the next 10 years." —winemaker

"In our vineyards in the south-western part of the Langenlois Loiserberg, Riesling vines are rooted in mineral mica-slate soils. Grapes harvested by hand have been carefully transformed into wine and aged in large wooden barrels in our 700-year-old natural cellar. The steep and meager terraces of the Ried Loiserberg in Langenlois provide perfect conditions for this dense and mineral Riesling with aromatic depth and finesse." —winemaker

"The White Springs Vineyard yields a fruitier expression of Riesling with tangerine, peach, citrus, and underlying minerality from the limestone soil." —winemaker

"A finely balanced riesling from one of Ontario's premier wine producers. It's pale yellow and has aroma and flavours of fresh lime and its blossoms, starfruit and pear with mineral tones. The palate is dry, medium-bodied with crisp acidity and notes of citrus and spice on the finish. Pair with light meat, fish or seafood." —winemaker
