Product Overview
Importer's Notes
"At SOM, we approach our winemaking far differently than a traditional winery. We gather a team of sommeliers and winemakers, all who have equal say in our final product. We believe this intensely collaborative process shines through in the distinctiveness of our wines.
Tasting Notes:
Incredibly bright, electric and classical Riesling. Pineapple tarte, citrus peel and wet stone.
Vineyard Notes:
Thanks to the rocky soil profile and high levels of caliche (calcium carbonate/limestone), it is the perfect vineyard for classic, old-world Rieslings. Zillah Ranch Vineyard is a cool growing site in the Rattlesnake Hills AVA. This vineyard is recognized as one of the classic sites for stunning Washington Rieslings. It is conventionally farmed with no cover crops. Average yields are 5 to 7 tons per acre. Zillah Ranch is rocky, rugged ground overlooking the western end of the Yakima Valley that delivers majestic Rieslings."
