2016 Hahn Hill Vineyard Ice Wine Riesling

Our 2016 Ice Wine Riesling was hand-harvested from The Hahn Hill Vineyard in the Yakima Valley on December 16th, 2016.  Sourced from the beautiful Selenium Vineyard in Washington’s Yakima Valley, the south-facing vineyard sits 1,200 feet above sea level and produces complex Riesling with bright acidity. The frozen berries were pressed directly and the resulting concentrated juice was fermented cold with R2 yeasts. The fermentation was halted at 155 g/L residual sugar and the wine was aged for an additional 8 months in a tank and 1 year in bottle prior to release.

SOIL

Wind-blown loess on basalt bedrock.
